MISSION

Our mission is to evolve the healthcare industry into a leading example of sustainable design by transforming zero-waste concepts into real solutions that deliver reduced: costs, risk and waste.

Our vision is to fuse healthcare to their surroundings by lighting the match of awareness to their environmental impact and help them honor their commitment to their communities while sustaining a profitable system.

Through regulatory guidance, business intelligence and staff training we help clients transform their environmental management system into a near zero-waste process.

Whether a client is just beginning their journey to a sustainable future, looking to further enhance it, or bringing a “green” solution to market. Environmental Health Concepts, Inc’s services offer enterprise solutions to support our clients’ goals.

Custom training, waste minimization, and environmental compliance assistance supported by web based software.

We know workers in the healthcare industry have a unique bond. They have something that sets them apart from other industries, a core-value in common. Their desire to provide a healthier tomorrow for their patients, their staff, and their communities helps them get up in the morning. It’s why they come to work. It’s how they keep us well.

Managing healthcare waste can be a complex and time-consuming task at all levels of a healthcare organization. Improperly done, it can also cause a disconnect with the community and world we exist in. Through business intelligence, web supported tools, and customized training we help your organization demonstrate their commitment to reducing health and safety risks, negative environmental impacts, and high costs associated with healthcare waste management.

Our approach is all about our Customer. Our Waste Reduction Services simplify the process by breaking it down into 5 easy steps to evolve our client’s workplaces to a zero waste environment.

Impact Consulting

It’s sustainability consulting with a twist. Everything you do or don’t do impacts your perceived value as an organization and your product or service price in the marketplace. Need to build a better connection between your organization, the environment, and customer value? Impact Consulting is about connecting your company sustainability initiatives to customer benefit.

Our team has a proven track record of helping clients reach their goals. We’ve got the experience, knowledge, and technical design to help businesses develop their competitive edge, connect employees to sustainable goals, and identify new green opportunities. Improve customer perception and watch your loyalty scores grow.

Companies with a competitive edge in the market place are serious about corporate sustainability. They bring redesigned products to market. They substitute disposable for reusable, and implement internal process improvements for forward environmental gain. They realize that sustainability means reduced dependencies and long-term business stability. In the best scenario, sustainability programs are implemented across the board and naturally embed themselves deep into the core values of your organization. They evolve into innovative reductions by every department with every employee’s attention to a new direction in sustainability.

To bring you that same competitive edge, we begin with an understanding of your unique customer connection. We talk to employees, evaluate processes, and identify ways to make environmental gains. Throughout our process, we never forget what we learned about your unique customer value. This means each improvement reduces your environmental impact while connecting staff to your end goal, Customer Value.

Often companies will leave existing staff to run “sustainability” or “green” committees. This may work to get a company moving in the right direction but too often the cost-savings that should have developed as a result of substituting X for Y hasn’t materialized and no one has any clue how to measure the environmental impact. Our sustainability programs are implemented with customized on-demand reporting, so you’ll be able to communicate your success to your employees and your customers.

Sometimes, there are hidden environmental trade-offs that can have even greater liabilities. Putting your company’s sustainability efforts in the wrong hands can do more than just hurt the sales numbers, or reputation. It can also put you at risk of liability. Something as simple as switching from disposable to reusable can cause complications if your product has any chemical or biological residues. Innovations should be carefully measured against the full picture by experts you can trust. And what about “greenwashing”? How does the consumer’s perception of a company’s commitment to “green” turn into a view that your commitment ends with the marketing department.

We have over a decade of experience working with local, state, and federal environmental agencies so we know the right questions to ask and right resources to tap for some of the most complicated environmental scenarios.

We offer sustainability and expansion consulting, environmental training, and more through our Customized Impact Programs. Please take some time to read About Us, Our Team, peruse some white papers and case studies.

We’d love to schedule a discussion to learn more about your current sustainability programs, or help you get one started.
