Hospitals must continually restock supplies from furniture to cleaners to pharmaceuticals and do it in the most economical way possible.

o hospitals have any responsibility to society for the products they use?

Hospitals must continually restock supplies from furniture to cleaners to pharmaceuticals and do it in the most economical way possible. It is easy to see how a healthcare system can impact its environmental footprint by choosing products that are eco-friendly and in the long run lower costs (“Materials Purchasing and Supply Chain,” 2022).

Group, as we face more scrutiny and judgement for an organization’s impact on the environment, especially, since we are charged with the health of our communities, is this something we should be considering and discussing in regard to our supply chain management? Could this affect our brand and/or revenues? Explain.
