AHE's Environmental Sustainability Certificate Program provides facilities and organizations an opportunity to demonstrate accomplishments related to environmental sustainability and stewardship.
The program provides guidance on budget-friendly, efficient, effective and value-added environmentally sustainable health care operations for facilitates of all sizes and care settings. The certificate program is a component of AHE's overall sustainability efforts, which include the Sustainability Roadmap for Hospitals and educational opportunities.
