Description

This practical guide, for primary care, provides a context-specific introduction to the sustainability challenges associated with good healthcare delivery and provides easy-to-implement yet impactful actions that can be taken to reduce and mitigate the impact of primary care on the living world whilst also looking at the impact of the changing planet on healthcare that people will encounter. The chapters address the following key questions – What is the issue? What can I do/what can my practice do? How do my actions help patients, practice and planet? Included throughout are case studies, vignettes and anecdotes of previous successful interventions, while a check list of the most impactful actions for others to follow, as supported by the current evidence base, provides a convenient summary. References and additional resource recommendations give directions to further guidance. The book looks at the four pillars of primary care, Dentistry, General Practice, Optometry and Pharmacy, and includes international contributions. Key Features: · Specific to primary care and highly practical · Covers a broad spectrum of environmental topics directly relevant to primary care · Illustrated with examples from real-life experience supported by published evidence Providing invaluable direction to turn good intentions into meaningful action, the book will be invaluable to health professionals and practice managers across all primary care disciplines and to students preparing to enter practice in those fields. It will also be of interest to integrated care system administrators and to health policy makers. The Editors: Dr Matt Sawyer is a former GP, current Director of SEE Sustainability and a Carbon Literacy trainer, UK Dr Mike Tomson is a former GP (clinically retired), a medical educator coach and a Trustee for Centre for Sustainable Healthcare, previously Director of Greener Practice CIC, UK.
