The 2025 Health care sustainability metrics report, featuring performance data from nearly 500 healthcare facilities across the country, is your roadmap for understanding where your facility stands—and where the greatest opportunities for improvement exist.

Health care facilities tracking and improving these metrics are seeing:

• 10-30% reduction in energy, water, and waste costs  
• $100,000+ annual savings from proper waste segregation alone   
• Improved patient outcomes linked to better air quality and healthier environments
• Enhanced reputation with the 70% of consumers who prefer environmentally responsible providers    

This is environmental health in action. Every improvement in these metrics represents cleaner air for our communities, reduced exposure to harmful chemicals for patients and staff, and resources freed up for patient care.
