Sustainability is more than a buzzword that only focuses on environmentally friendly practices, such as reducing waste. Sustainability is the future of business and healthcare and now is the time to get started with the journey. 

What does sustainability mean for dentistry? How can sustainability be implemented in a practice without incurring additional expense or compromise patient safety while simultaneously tackling some of the world’s biggest challenges? 

Join ADA NSW’s Kylie Robb in this interactive short course and get inspired with practical tips and ideas that can be implemented right away. Learn about strategies to measure the success of your efforts while improving team performance, and determine ways to inform your patients, colleagues, and healthcare consumers of your good work without ‘greenwashing’ your practice.

  • Introduction to the sustainability landscape and what resources are already available to get started 
  • How to get started by prioritising sustainability efforts. Understanding that you can’t do everything.
