A Hospitalist’s Case: Environmental Services and Interprofessional Practice

In more than twenty years of internal medicine practice, Dr. Omrana Pasha-Razzak has watched environmental services work alongside her teams without being counted as part of them. Over this time the care team has grown, from doctors, to doctors and nurses, adding pharmacists, and other professionals responsible for patient care. It is time for environmental services to join this team. Drawing on five domains—patient-specific cleaning, patient flow, infection prevention, chemicals and products, and governance—she argues for the necessary structural changes. Get a sneak peek.

This two-part panel discussion convenes cross disciplinary experts who will highlight the gaps between innovation and the challenges of real-world application.

Engage in robust networking through interactive sessions, face-to-face discussions, and relaxed cocktail-hour conversations—creating space to share ideas, spark collaborations, and build lasting relationships across the community.

Gain insight into sustainability trends, the EPA Safer Choice program, and ISSA’s Making Safer Choices Community of Practice—resources to help organizations choose safer, high-performing products and practices.
