German medical centre aces Siemens' Green+ Check
Leipzig’s St. Georg Group has become the first medical centre to complete Siemens’ Green+ Check.
The St. Georg Medical Centre commissioned Siemens Healthcare to conduct a Green+ Check to determine its sustainability index and identify areas in which sustainability performance could be improved. The analysis produced a Green+ score of 56, which is well above average (the average score across all areas would be 33). This confirms that St. Georg is very well positioned in comparison to similar facilities in Germany.
The Green+ Check identified energy efficiency and IT resources as areas with room for further improvement.
The Check provided by Siemens Healthcare applies a standardised evaluation scheme to measure a company’s specific sustainability performance in three categories — environment, efficiency and quality — and then uses the results to identify areas with room for improvement.
