Corporate Responsibility
Healthcare Realty recognizes the importance of embedding environmental, social and governance (ESG) best practices into its strategy, philosophy and operating performance.
Our commitment to corporate responsibility is paramount in everything we do – in the services and facilities provided to our tenants, as financial stewards of shareholder capital and as responsible citizens in the communities where we live and work. We continually seek ways to be more efficient, reduce waste and engage with stakeholders to produce better financial outcomes and minimize our environmental impact.
