🌎 World environmental day 🌎
We can all make a difference to help the environment and even the smallest change can have huge impact. Here at Mainstone we have made quite a few changes over the last few years to make a difference to our footprint. Here's what we do to help:
💊 Part of a nationwide drive to reduce antibiotic usage
♻️ Recycling bins for our medication blister packs and cardboard, plastic and tins
🌿 Compost heap for all our garden waste and tea bags!
🐝 Bee friendly plants
🟩 Low flow anaesthesia. This helps us reduce our anaesthetic gas and oxygen usage.
💙 Oxygen generators that reduce our nees for oxygen cylinders
📦 We choose products with recyclable packaging or products made from recycled materials where we can
📝 Regular waste audits
❤️ Chemical free cleaning where possible and suage of microfibre clothes. Our main disinfectant contains biodegradable ingredients.
😊 choosing local or UK based products
