Description
Deciding to become a "green" facility can be a significant undertaking for a healthcare facility. Hence, once a facility does make this commitment, it is imperative all employees are on-board withthis effort 110 percent. But, how does a healthcare facility get everyone to make this commitment? This session will identify the key steps a facility must take to achieve employee buy-in and how to maintain this level of buy-in long-term. This session enables attendees to:
. Identify the key steps a healthcare facility should follow when trying to achieve employee buy-in for ""greening"" their facility.
. Discuss potential methods of increasing employee buy-in and make it part of an employee's daily work life.
. Manage the level of employee buy-in to the initiative long-term
. Serve as an internal ambassador of the effort and know how to effectively spread the excitement to other employees.
