Brentwood Country Animal Hospital joined the Green Alliance in 2019. The practice is committed to making greener choices and sustainable long term goals.

​

Dr. Jody Kaufman has done her best to conserve the original charm of the 1850’s farmhouse in which her business resides. However, this comes with its own set of limitations in terms of energy conservation.

 

BCAH recently replaced all windows to increase heat efficiency, and has also transitioned to the exclusive use of LED lightbulbs.

 

When it was time to say goodbye to the beloved barn that sat outside the clinic, a company was brought in to reclaim as much of the lumber as possible.

​

On a daily basis, BCAH strives to minimize waste by recycling all allowable materials, including electronics. BCAH recently joined with Mr. Fox Composting to begin composting all organic materials and paper towels.

 

BCAH has moved much of its client communication to email to reduce paper waste and carbon footprint, and has a long term goal to eventually transition to a completely paperless practice.

​

Dr. Kaufman and the rest of the staff at Brentwood County Animal Hospital are excited to move forward with their goals of promoting sustainable energy and environmentally conscientious decision making for future projects.
