Jackson is Going Green!

Jackson Health System is joining a growing wave of companies across the country, including many in the healthcare industry, that are embracing more environmentally friendly practices. With successful green programs and initiatives already underway throughout the United States, JHS is researching ways that we, too, can "go green" while also saving money. The new JHS logo you see at the right will be used to support our green programs and goals. It will serve all of us as a visual reminder to do our part in taking care of the environment.

The success of our green programs will depend on our employees. If we all commit to taking small steps such as this, together we can make a big difference.

This section of our website will help let our community know how we are "Going Green" by including easy tips and ideas on how we can all be more environmentally friendly on a day-to-day basis.

It's Easy Bein' Green!
