The MGH has installed an ADA-compliant water bottle fill station at the exit of the Eat Street Cafeteria. “We are extremely excited to introduce this new unit,” says Joan Shea, director of Nutrition and Food Services. “This is one of the many steps the hospital is taking to becoming more environmentally friendly. We hope that staff and patients find this to be an excellent resource to help us reduce the use of plastics throughout the hospital.”Doctor & developer: MGH MD creates medical emojis
