Green Practice

Greener Practice

The climate crisis has a direct impact on health. The NHS has made a pledge to be carbon neutral by 2040. Here at Broom Leys Surgery, we recognise our responsibility as a NHS healthcare provider to protect the health of the people of Coalville by reducing our impact on the environment. This means improving patient care whilst reducing air pollution, reducing waste and reducing our carbon footprint.

The practice has signed up to RCGP Green Impact Programme, this is an environmental accreditation scheme that encourages pro-environmental behaviours amongst staff. It empowers sustainability champions within the workplace, helping them gain recognition for their environmental efforts, whilst playing on the competitive spirit of staff working in teams. It provides people and their departments with a tangible framework for improving their environmental performance, breaking down complex environmental issues into more manageable bite-sized chunks.

How we have turned Green

Waste: New bins in the kitchen. This is a small gesture however a highly visible daily reminder to all staff to recycle where possible. Currently staff are taking the recycling home to dispose of correctly as we have no facility to have our own recycling bins at the moment. This is in the process of being changed.
Batteries and printer cartridges: We recycle batteries and printer cartridges and encourage all staff and patients to do this with us.
Clinical waste: Separate waste as we go – cardboard/paper, plastic and clinical waste. This increases recyclable waste, decreases the amount of clinical waste produced and therefore reduces cost.

Things we do:

Paperless printing: Nearly all prescriptions are sent EPS, patient leaflets are sent via ACCURX. FIT notes are sent electronically.
Carbon footprint: We have completed our carbon footprint which shows us as a practice the areas we need to improve on.
Lighting: We are changing all the lighting in the building to ensure that it’s more energy efficient.
Green Team: We have a dedicated ‘Green Team’ to discuss ideas and to implement changes however big or small.
Social Prescribers
We champion our social prescribers. They offer non-medical community based activities and a holistic approach to patient care. They improve mental health, health inequalities and loneliness therefore reducing GP consultations and medical interventions.
Patient Participation Groups
We are lucky to have a highly involved group of patients who are keen for us to go green. They provide invaluable feedback and support.
