A green hospital uses less water, optimizes energy efficiency, conserves natural resources, generates less waste and provides healthier spaces for occupants, as compared to a conventional building. As per experts in the healthcare sector, ‘green hospital’ is the latest trend and is gradually gaining momentum in the country.

Dr Roy Patankar, Director  at Zen Multispecialty Hospital says,“ Introducing green concepts in the healthcare facilities can help address National issues like infection, epidemics, handling of bio-medical waste, water efficiency, energy efficiency, reduction in fossil fuel use for commuting, consumer waste and in general conservation of natural resources.
