All of our functions are governed by the central idea of the "Green Dialysis Center". This idea penetrates all levels of management and remain a conscious choice of our employees. In fact, the "green" process marks a continuous effort to improve the provision of health services to citizens while reducing the ecological footprint of health care units. This is necessary, as it has been scientifically established that there is correlation and interaction between the environment and health services. Thus, the "Agios Panteleimonas" Modern Dialysis Centers, following "green" practices in management strategy and day-to-day operations, link the local needs of social groups to the broader ecological issues that are emerging, helping to prevent and avert environmental hazards.
