Langford Vets is pleased to announce the launch of our Green Group!
What have we been working on?
Reduce, Reuse, Recycle
Anaesthesia
Sustainability Anaesthesia
This includes:
- Using low flow systems where possible to reduce the use of anaesthetic gases
- Use injectable anaesthetics alongside inhalational gases to reduce the amount of gases required
- Carefully selecting the gases we use
- We stopped using nitrous oxide in our clinics many years ago
- We use sevoflurane when appropriate which has a much lower impact as a greenhouse gas than isoflurane.

We encourage our team to make sustainable decisions using signage as a gentle reminder. By turning off electrical devices when not in use we are reducing overheads and our carbon dioxide emissions.

We use signage to remind our teams to...

Clean and tidy monitoring cables

Switch off monitoring

Turn off the vaporiser and anaesthetic machine
