Transition Hospital

Just been listening to Podcast from Andy Williamson who has realised through his medical treatment for kidney disease the resource needs of healthcare and hospitals. He suggests that hospitals could see themselves as communities and become Transition Hospitals, to help find positive approaches to the transition to low carbon healthcare.

He gave this podcast to a medical meeting of kidney doctors run by Campaign for Greener Healthcare. In the questions he talks about the benefits of getting data over the internet (information communication technology, ICT) for accessing data. Also the support of social networking to communicate with fellow patients.
