Healthcare will have to play an important role in 1. Caring for increasing burden of illness 2. Creating resilient infrastructure 3. Reducing its own environmental footprint #sustainability
#IPCC's 2022 #ClimateReport shows heatwaves in Europe will become more frequent, more intense & will last longer. By 2050, about half of the European population may be exposed to high or very high risk of heat stress during summer. ➡️ bit.ly/IICpt13
🚀 The @LaheyHospital Innovation Hub launched with first #AI focused event A system-wide platform with 3 pillars 1. Transforming patient care & experience 2. Advancing workforce well-being 3. Environmentally sustainable innovation We invite all to join us on this journey!




We agree... our 💡 #Innovation hub focuses on #Sustainability as a core from the get go, rather than an afterthought Let's not just build smarter tools but better system that is equitable and sustainable for all
#heatwave2025 and #healthcare In healthcare, we have triple responsibility 1. Care for patients 2. Reduce environmental footprint 3. Resilient infrastructure for uninterrupted operations #Sustainability
