ATRYS-SIMM, its Management, Medical Directorate and its medical, technical, secretarial and nursing staff are committed to implementing measures to mitigate environmental impact and to promoting sustainable practices, for the benefit of the environment in general and of our main focus: patients and their families, in line with the amendment to the ISO 9001:2015 standard published on 23 February 2024.
Our environmental policy is based on the following principles:

- Legal Compliance: We comply with all applicable national and regional (Autonomous Community) environmental laws and regulations. In addition, we strive to exceed the minimum requirements wherever possible.
- Energy Efficiency: We seek to reduce our energy consumption and promote the use of renewable sources wherever feasible.
- Waste Management: We implement appropriate practices for the segregation, recycling and safe disposal of medical and non-medical waste, particularly biological and radioactive waste, as well as replacing printed paper materials with electronic equivalents and recycling paper.
- Education and Awareness: We train our staff and inform our patients about responsible environmental practices.
