Abstract

Hospitals are structures where the use of energy and resources that affect both the environment and human health are intense. In particular, the health sector accounts for about 25% of the total carbon emissions of the community by itself and produces large quantities of toxic, harmful substances and contaminated water. Thinking of bringing hospitals out of this situation and making them more beneficial to the environment and human health have provided the emergence of the green hospital concept. In other words, the green hospital has referred to hospitals that use less energy, produce less waste, use more recyclable materials and become healthier organisations on this count. As green hospitals become widespread throughout the world, knowing how hospitals meet the requirements for green hospital has led to the emergence of green hospital certification systems. These certification systems assess hospitals in various areas and score points and certify to hospitals at different levels according to their scores. Hospitals having these certifications gain better patient outcomes, patient / employee safety and satisfaction, cost savings and productivity increase. In this respect, this study will focus on BREEAM for Healthcare, LEED for Healthcare, and Australian Green Star certification systems that are the most commonly used green hospital certification systems worldwide.

Özet

Hastaneler hem çevre hem de insan sağlığına etki eden enerji ve kaynak kullanımının yoğun olduğu yapılardır. Özellikle tek başına sağlık sektörü, kamunun toplam karbon salınımının yaklaşık %25’ini oluşturmakta ve zehirli, zararlı maddeler ve kirli sulardan oluşan büyük miktarlarda atık üretmektedir. Hastaneleri bu durumdan kurtarıp çevreye ve insan sağlığına daha faydalı kurumlar haline getirme düşüncesi yeşil hastane kavramını gündeme getirmiştir. Yani yeşil hastane, daha az enerji harcayan, daha az atık üreten, daha fazla geri dönüştürülebilir malzeme kullanan bu sayede daha sağlıklı kurumlar haline gelen hastaneleri ifade etmektedir. Yeşil hastanelerin dünya genelinde yaygınlaşması sonucunda hastanelerin yeşil olma şartlarını ne kadar karşıladığının bilinmesi ihtiyacı da yeşil hastane sertifikalandırma sistemlerinin ortaya çıkmasını sağlamıştır. Bu sertifikalandırma sistemleri hastaneleri çeşitli alanlarda değerlendirerek bir puanlama yapmakta ve hastanelere aldıkları puanlara göre farklı seviyelerde sertifika vermektedirler. Bu sertifikalara sahip olan hastaneler daha iyi hasta sonuçları, hasta/çalışan güvenliği ve memnuniyeti, maliyet tasarrufu ve verimlilik artışı elde etmektedirler. Bu doğrultuda, bu çalışmada dünya genelinde en sık kullanılan yeşil hastane sertifika sistemleri olan BREEAM for Healthcare, LEED for Healthcare ve Australian Green Star sertifika sistemleri üzerinde durulacaktır.
