摘要

Waste production in healthcare facilities of developing countries has brought about a variety of concerns due to the use of inappropriate methods of managing the wastes. Inappropriate treatment and final disposal of the wastes can lead to adverse impacts to public health, to occupational health and safety, and to the environment. This paper summarizes the variety of constraints faced to adequately managing these wastes in rural healthcare settings. Lack of sufficient technological resources, awareness and attitude of the healthcare personnel in looking at the issue, hinders the development of adequate to moderate implementation of waste management practices in remote setups. This paper presents a case study performed in 15 rural healthcare establishments of one of the district of Kerala, India. It first highlights the prevalent waste management structure of the involved healthcare establishments before undertaking the study, then, evaluating the constraints in implementation of a waste management system, and, lastly, motivates the need for appropriate practices within in the available resources for setting up such a system. This paper also highlights the inappropriateness of chemical disinfection process with the said concentration of 1-2% of bleach solution, as mentioned in the Biomedical Waste Management (& Handling) Rules, 1998, promulgated by MoEF, Govt of India. The study have also developed an appropriate and user -friendly method tailored to the local needs for management of huge amount of sharps generated during immunization or other practices in rural healthcare settings. There is a clear need for novel approaches towards rural healthcare, particularly in creating awareness about various feasible practices to manage the healthcare waste. The holistic approach suggested by the study, though not particularly novel is technically competent and well thought out.
