We have been hearing from many people –including our callers — about Green Teams. But if there’s one business segment that’s moved into building and empowering their green teams, it is healthcare.

So today we begin a 2-part series on Green Health. We have some interesting guests lined up:

• LifeBridge Health – a healthcare system which comprises Sinai Hospital of Baltimore, Northwest Hospital, Levindale Hebrew Geriatric Center and Hospital, Courtland Gardens Nursing & Rehabilitation Center and their subsidiaries
• Phoenix Children’s Hospital – with several locations in Phoenix, Scottsdale and the East Valley
• Maryland Hospital for Healthy Environment
• Johns Hopkins Hospital and Health System
• Legacy Health Systems – comprising Good Samaritan Hospital and Medical Center and HealthLink

ON TODAY’S SHOW:

Lionel Weeks, the VP of Facilities at LifeBridge Health, who has led several revolutionary sustainability projects at LifeBridge Health facilities

Dave Cottle, Executive Director Planning, Design and Construction at Phoenix Children’s Hospital (he will be in studio)

Tom Braddick Sustainability Coordinator, Legacy Health System, Portland, Ore.

It’s going to be a packed show!

NEXT WEEK’S SHOW:
On 27 October, we will continue with Part 2 of this focus on Green Teams, when we will talk to Colleen Cusick of Johns Hoplins, and Joan Plisko of Maryland Hospitals.
