AB  - Bu çalışmada, çevre dostu hastaneler ve sürdürülebilir sağlık hizmetlerinde yeşil hastanelerin önemi literatüre kapsamında değerlendirilmiştir. Karbon ayak izinin iklim değişikliği ve insan sağlığı üzerindeki olumsuz etkilerinin önlem alınmadığı takdirde gelecekte de devam edeceği öngörülmektedir. Ülkelerin gelişmişlik düzeylerine göre değişkenlik göstermekle birlikte sağlık sektörü, toplam sera gazı emisyonlarına, %2 ile %7 arasında olumsuz katkı sağlamaktadır. Gerekli önlemler alınmadığı takdirde, sağlık sektöründen kaynaklanan emisyonların 2050 yılına kadar üç kat artabileceği öngörülmektedir. Sağlık tesislerinin, hastalara kaliteli hizmet sunmasının yanında çevre güvenliğini sağlamada da yeşil konsepte uygun öncül rol oynaması önemlidir.  Çevre dostu hastanelerin (yeşil hastaneler) ortaya çıkışı, sağlık sektörünü tehdit eden çevresel etkilerin azaltılmasına katkı sağlayıp, sağlık hizmetlerinin sürdürülebilirliğini sağlamada umut verici çözümler sunmaktadır. Yeşil hastanelerin; çevresel, ekonomik, sağlık ve güvenlik avantajlarının yanında, hasta memnuniyetini ve çalışan verimliliğini artırma, çevreye duyarlı sağlık hizmeti sunma avantajları da mevcuttur. Yeşil sağlık tesisleri iklim değişikliği ilgili yasal düzenlemelere uyum sağlayarak, karbon emisyonu ve diğer çevresel olumsuz etkileri azaltmaktadır.  Bu doğrultuda ülkelerin sağlık tesislerini yeşil sağlık politikasına uygun şekilde donatması ve dönüştürmesi önerilmektedir.

N2  - In this study, the importance of green hospitals in environmentally friendly healthcare services and sustainable healthcare systems is evaluated within the scope of the relevant literature. It is projected that the negative effects of carbon footprints on climate change and human health will continue in the future unless necessary measures are taken. Although it varies depending on countries' levels of development, the healthcare sector contributes negatively to total greenhouse gas emissions, accounting for approximately 2% to 7%. If appropriate actions are not implemented, emissions originating from the healthcare sector are expected to triple by 2050. In addition to providing quality services to patients, healthcare facilities must also play a leading role in ensuring environmental safety in accordance with the green concept. The emergence of environmentally friendly hospitals (green hospitals) contributes to reducing the environmental impacts threatening the healthcare sector and offers promising solutions for ensuring the sustainability of healthcare services. Green hospitals offer not only environmental, economic, health, and safety advantages, but also improve patient satisfaction, enhance employee productivity, and deliver environmentally conscious healthcare services. By complying with climate change-related regulations, green healthcare facilities reduce carbon emissions and other negative environmental impacts. In this context, it is recommended that countries equip and transform their healthcare facilities in alignment with green healthcare policies.
