I will spend 5 minutes learning about greenwashing and how to avoid it.

I announced Earth Day at morning staff huddle and encouraged everyone to do at least one thing today to save the planet and gave some examples.

When the sticky wrap on the pulse ox sensors get ruined most everyone tosses them and opens a whole new pack (more waste and more costly). All anesthesia carts have the wrap replacement. I’ve had these ordered for the GPU and will educate staff on their existence and use.

I noticed our pulse ox recycling bins in the GPU were all gone and assumed the program was discontinued. When I found out it was still an initiative, I reached out to my OR contact and we got a new bin up the same day!
