UNIVERSITY and health bosses have teamed up in a “game-changing” partnership to make hospital environments greener. NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde and Glasgow Caledonian University have joined together to nurture health professionals who will improve environments as well as patient health. Both have agreed a new Memorandum of Understanding (MoU), which formalises links between the health board’s Sustainability Team and the university’s School of Built Environment and Engineering Department, with student internships placed within the health board from the BSc (Hons) Environmental Management degree. NHSGGC and GCU have longstanding relations across traditional areas such as nursing, midwifery and paramedic science, and now those links will expand to incorporate the engineering, science and environmental professions.
