The Design for Life Roadmap launched today by the UK Government will be a great help in making healthcare more environmentally sustainable. It looks at reducing single use items, which are a huge environmental and financial waste.
RCEM welcomes the UK Government’s new strategy to significantly reduce the number of single-use medical devices in the NHS, called the Design for Life Roadmap. This mirrors the work of RCEM’s @GreenED_uk initiative, which measures and reduces the environmental impact of Emergency Departments in the UK, thus driving environmentally sustainable practices within the specialty of Emergency Medicine. Listen to RCEM’s Dr Sandy Robertson @EMDrSandy, RCEM’s ESIG Chair and Co Clinical Lead of the GreenED Programme below and for more information, visit

@benn_elisbenn @RCollEM Good point sorry if this was unclear, we are reducing unnecessary cannulation, making sure that we only use a canula when it is really needed, not reusing cannulas.
