Growing health: how a green roof improves wellness, sustainability and planetary health
Design plans for The Ottawa Hospital’s new state-of-the-art hospital and campus are fundamentally guided by the health of people and the health of our planet.
Contributing to planetary health and environmental sustainability is one of the guiding principles of the new campus, and TOH is committed to building a hospital and surrounding campus that have positive impacts on the environment, the community and the people who use it.
A key design feature of the new campus is a sustainable green roof that will provide several environmental benefits and can also improve the wellness of patients, visitors and staff through a connection to nature.
