By participating in Practice Greenhealth’s Environmental Excellence Awards, partners receive personalized reports that show how their sustainability data compares to other applicants. These reports are useful tools in advancing the work of their sustainability programs.
“Thanks to the data analyzed through the awards platform at Practice Greenhealth, we're in a healthier position to categorically mitigate the various wastes associated with health care operations while improving patient and community health. For example, we came to understand the hospital's water usage, while better than the median, is now a focal point of reduction."
– Ali Wolf, Asprius project manager
