+ Event summary

This study day takes an in-depth look at how we can reduce the environmental impact of the care we provide, how the climate and ecological crisis affects the health of our patients and will empower you to address these issues in the healthcare system.

We will outline how emergency care is contributing to the climate crisis and how the system is attempting to respond to this.

You will learn from the first hand experience of emergency departments undertaking Green ED accreditation on how to run a successful sustainability project

We will hear from emergency care professionals from around the world on how they are managing the health effects of climate change on their populations as well as from organisations related to health about the importance of the healthcare voice in advocating for societal action.

SLOs covered: SLO 1, 2, 5 and 11
