Responsibility to the environment and to our stakeholders
As a vertically integrated dialysis company, we not
only manufacture products related to dialysis and
develop treatment procedures; we also use our products
and procedures every day in our own clinics. As
a result, our understanding of responsibility begins
with our business model: By interacting directly with
our patients, clinic employees and doctors throughout
our global clinic network, we are able to keep
the needs of our most important stakeholders in
mind and continuously improve our services. We
also work in concert with healthcare partners, international
experts, and industry and patient associations
to improve the quality of life for renal patients
above and beyond our core products and services.
By steadily expanding environmental management
at our facilities and clinics, we can reduce the impact
our business has on the environment while ensuring
our financial success in the future. Our concept
of responsibility is also rooted in Fresenius Medical
Care’s values: quality, honesty and integrity, innovation
and improvement, respect and dignity.
