Corporate Social Responsibility
CSR at CORIUS
At CORIUS, we are reshaping dermatology and phlebology clinics through our commitment to sustainable healthcare. We integrate environmental, social and corporate values (ESG) into our actions. With every clinic from our network embracing these principles, we ensure that our pursuit of medical excellence goes hand in hand with the protection of the environment. This commitment for progress reflects not just a philosophy, but our promise for a healthier future.
We strive for the highest quality
At CORIUS, we use ESG as a practical framework to develop our services and business processes sustainably, fairly and ethically. This is how we want to raise quality in dermatology and phlebology to a new level. Our approach goes beyond the usual standards. We want to offer our patients the best treatment possible while protecting our planet and its inhabitants. This ethos forms the basis of our actions on our path to excellence in healthcare.
Focus Topics
Emissions
CORIUS is aware of the urgent need to minimize its impact on the environment. We are committed to reducing emissions and thereby reducing our ecological footprint.
Measures include encouraging our employees to use public transportation and increasing their environmental awareness. We promote a culture of sustainability, both within our clinics and with our patients.
By reducing our emissions and creating mindfulness about sustainability, we strive to make a positive contribution to protecting our environment and the well-being of future generations.
Resource & energy efficiency
Responsible use of resources and energy is essential to create a sustainable future. Our efforts are focused on integrating efficiency and sustainability into all aspects of our clinics.
We place great emphasis on training and awareness-raising to promote the responsible use of resources. Our team understands the importance of reducing waste and conserving valuable resources.
By switching to digital processes and electronic patient files, we are minimizing the consumption of paper and other materials. At the same time, digitalization enables us to manage and use resources more efficiently.
Another step toward greater sustainability is the gradual switch to green electricity. By using renewable energy, we will reduce our CO2 emissions and contribute to climate protection.
The quality of patient care is at the heart of everything we do. We always strive for the highest quality in diagnosis, treatment and service, without neglecting our commitment to the environment. Our patients can be confident that we have their health and that of our planet in mind.
