—————————-
Franklin Square has made a variety of impressive strides in embedding sustainability both in the design and operation of its hospital and reports three separate practices in its Trailblazing activities. First, Franklin Square Hospital Center is the first Maryland hospital to develop and implement an Environmental Management System (EMS) as a method for reducing environmental impacts. Second, as part of MedStar Health, Franklin Square Hospital Center began a hazardous pharmaceutical waste management program in 2007 that as of this year is fully operational system-wide. Finally, while designing and building the new Patient Care Tower and Emergency Department, Franklin Square Hospital Center has implemented a multitude of LEED-compliant features.
