The story of Pierre Rabhi's little Colibri:

In addition to this, you will need to know more about it.

A devastating fire breaks out on the earth, it spreads at high speed from village to village, from forest to forest ... The men run, hurry, but quickly have only one hurry: to get away and get down. sheltered.

In the sky, a small hummingbird is bustling about. It flies from leaf to leaf, very high, in search of the slightest drop of water. As soon as he grabs one, in the hollow of a leaf or a stump, he puts it in his beak and goes to throw it on the fire. And the merry-go-round begins again, the little hummingbird is busy, always faster and concentrated on its task.

A man who sees him calls him to order "Little hummingbird, but why are you doing it?" You can see that you alone will not put out the fire .. "

And the little hummingbird responds: "I'm doing my part".

Within the firm we are concerned about the impact we have on the planet, and we too want to "do our part", but when at the end of a day, we accumulate quantities of garbage bags, unfortunately you do the observation that we have a very waste-producing activity. Indeed, our obligations in terms of asepsis make us use a lot of chemicals, sometimes not very environmentally friendly, single-use medical devices, often plastic, ...

Also, for several years, we have been thinking in order to find the right balance to limit our ecological impact and to offer you a safe care environment.

In addition to this, you will need to know more about it.

Here are our lines of thought and what we have already put in place in this regard:

In addition to this, you will need to know more about it.

-We limit our use of paper (by completely eliminating paper files thanks to our professional software, by sending your quotes by email, by having you fill out your medical questionnaire by internet on a secure site, by limiting our impressions as much as possible, by reusing then all the sheets already used in draft so that they have a second life on site, and then recovering this waste through selective sorting)

- We have asked our suppliers to no longer send us promotional flyers, and we are refusing advertising in our mailbox.

- For the maintenance of the premises, we have chosen ecological products that respect the environment.

- We have equipped the south face of our building with BSO (Brise Soleil Orientables in order to limit the use of air conditioning)

- We have eliminated the use of plastic cups by removing the spittoons from our chairs and by making reusable cups available to you if necessary.

-We have eliminated as much as possible the disposable plastic care trays by replacing them with metal trays covered with a protective crepe sheet.

- We participate in collaboration with the company Terra Cycle in the recycling of toothbrushes and flexible toothpaste tubes by collecting them so that they are then valued by this company since currently communities and recycling centers do not treat them.

- For the packaging of the instruments, we use these same crepe packaging as much as possible to replace the plastic sterilization bags.

- In the rest room we have chosen to go back to our good old filter coffee machine so as to no longer have coffee capsules, which produce a lot of waste.

- If you have not been able to brush your teeth before coming, instead of offering you self-service disposable plastic toothbrushes, we prefer to offer you a reusable bamboo toothbrush at the reception.

- Our exterior lights are turned off after 9 p.m. to limit electricity consumption, bulb changes and night-time light pollution.

-For our weekly meetings, we have our meals delivered by "du Local au Bocal", which is located nearby and offers meals prepared with a maximum of local and / organic products, in reused glass jars, with the same approach to limiting their waste.
