Amrita Hospitals Faridabad is committed to promoting sustainable practices and minimizing the environmental impact of its operations. As part of this commitment, we have developed a Zero Waste Water Policy to ensure responsible water management and conservation throughout our facility. This policy aims to optimize water usage, reduce water waste, and enhance the overall efficiency of our water management systems.
1. Water Conservation Practices:

- Regularly inspect and maintain plumbing systems to prevent leaks and water wastage.
- Encourage staff and patients to adopt water-saving habits, such as turning off taps when not in use and reporting any leaks promptly.
2. Rainwater Harvesting:
- Install rainwater harvesting systems to collect and store rainwater for non-potable uses, such as irrigation and toilet flushing.
- Regularly maintain and monitor rainwater harvesting systems to ensure their optimal functionality.
3. Greywater Management:
- Implement greywater treatment systems to recycle and reuse greywater from sinks, showers, and laundry facilities for non-potable purposes.
- Educate staff and patients on the appropriate use of greywater and promote responsible practices.
4. Water Recycling:
- Explore and implement water recycling technologies, such as membrane filtration and reverse osmosis, to treat and reuse wastewater for non-potable applications.
- Develop a comprehensive water recycling system that adheres to local regulations and promotes sustainable water use.
5. Educational Campaigns:
- Conduct regular awareness campaigns and training sessions to educate staff, patients, and visitors about the importance of water conservation and responsible water usage.
- Provide informational materials and resources to promote water-saving practices and encourage behavioral changes.
6. Continuous Improvement:
- Establish water consumption benchmarks and regularly monitor and evaluate water usage patterns.
- Set targets for reducing water consumption and track progress towards achieving those targets.

By implementing this Zero Waste Water Policy, Amrita Hospitals Faridabad aims to minimize water waste, conserve this valuable resource, and contribute to a more sustainable future. We are committed to regularly reviewing and updating our water management practices to ensure their effectiveness and alignment with emerging best practices in the field.
