Nursing Homes Waste 1 Billion Euro per Year


Every year, Dutch nursing homes waste 1 billion euros.  This is due to too-high energy bills, the purchase of expensive goods, and unnecessary paperwork.  Also, they often spend too much money on unnecessary medication and surplus overhead.  Furthermore, almost half of the hot meals are thrown away at the end of the day.  These results are from research done by the MAX broadcasting station.
