Saint Joseph Health System has launched a “Working Green, Living Green” team to help decrease its carbon footprint, continually improve practices and raise awareness among employees.

A “green event” will be held at every hospital next week as we lead up to National Recycling Day on Nov. 15. At the event, employees and volunteers are invited to learn more about the new team and its green initiatives and to pick up a complimentary gift: a Saint Joseph Health System reusable shopping bag … perfect for a quick trip to the drug store, grocery store or farmer’s market!

Watch for ongoing news at your hospital about the Working Green, Living Green team, plus the little things you can do at home that make a big impact. It’s easy being green!
