The hospice industry is witnessing a surge in environmental sustainability efforts. Providers like Agrace Hospice & Supportive Care and Amedisys, Inc. are making strides toward long-term ecological responsibility. Despite the need for initial investments, hospices anticipate cost savings from reduced energy consumption and enhanced staff recruitment and retention. Agrace aims to achieve carbon neutrality by 2025 by investing in renewable energy sources and transitioning to electric vehicles. Similarly, Amedisys has plans to reach net zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050. Other examples, like Hospice of the Western Reserve, demonstrate the ripple effects of sustainability initiatives on the community, aligning with the mission to promote quality of life and leave a lasting legacy for future generations.
