Only a little more than a year after creating its “Green Team,” Union Hospital has earned recognition for its environmentally conscious initiative from the Maryland Department of the Environment. Representatives from the hospital accepted a 2010 Maryland Green Registry Leadership Award during the first annual awards event at the Green Building Council in Jessup on Tuesday night.
