title: Nova Scotia facility 'bigger and greener'.
abstract: Krista Wood, director of public relations for Colchester East Hants Health Authority in Canada's Nova Scotia, describes enthusiastically a new 124-bed health centre that opened late last year, which not only has the potential to conserve 44 per cent more energy than a 'traditional' hospital, but is also better equipped, and almost a third bigger, than the facility it replaces.
