AHS signed the White House Pledge that was led by the Biden Administration. This pledge states that we have a goal of reducing emissions by 50 percent by 2023 and becoming net zero by 2050. We and 15 percent of all US hospitals are committed to this goal because we recognize how much the healthcare system contributes to domestic emissions and acknowledge climate change is the number one threat to global public health.

Industry-Specific
Industry Specific Practices
Description of Action: 
In 2023, 111 Madison Surgery Center did not use desflurane for any of the OR cases they had. Desflurane is an anesthetic gas that is one of the most damaging to the environment. As no desflurane was used, this created a cost savings of $4534 when compared to the baseline year of 2021. This also reduced carbon emissions by 31 metric tons. By utilizing anesthetic alternatives, 111 Madison exemplifies the commitment to sustainability that the whole Atlantic Health Care System has.
