Lundi, 30 Mai 2016
- Taps are equipped with water savers,
- The 60 000 dialysis lines that are used every year do not contain phthalates any more (these are harmful
products that have been prohibited in the manufacture of playthings),
- The pockets of tincture extracts are delivered by 6 and not by 2 any more,
- The light bulbs have the NF-environment eco-label, and the suppliers and providers must sign an environmental
code.
- People can choose between organic menus,
- The future buildings will be HEQ-certified.
The water from the dialysis (15m3 a day) is too mineralized to be drunk and is thus re-used for watering and
steam cleaning. It is more efficient and healthier than chemical detergents. The private hospital has implemented
12 waste separation channels and this does not increase the workload of the employees.
