Good Morning,
I am keen for suggestions of sustainability and recycling projects that anyone might be involved with.
Obviously and understandably there are many areas where recycling etc. is inappropriate but I would
like to think there is a way of doing things better that protects patients, society and the planet.I would be grateful if people could share their ideas?
Kind Regards

Hi Jo
My facility struggles with recycling, mainly due to space constraints rather than lack of willingness. Recycling requires segregation, and that means more bins or collection points.
One project we have recently started is PVC recycling (masks, tubing, PVC flasks). We do this through a company that provides us PVC products, and they pay the transport costs, so we just have to collect PVC appropriately. It has become quite successful in our high usage areas (Cath Lab, Theatres, ICU) due mainly to individuals with a passion to help with this recycling. Facility Executive were happy to sponsor this as it is relatively cost-neutral to do.
If you want details of the company involved, please let me know. I don’t know what areas they can provide this to, but it might be worth pursuing if you don’t already.
Cheers
