- W1597379167 abstract "Background: The safe management of healthcare waste remains a public health issue in many countries of the world. Objectives: To assess healthcare waste management practices in primary health care facilities in a rural Lassa fever endemic community in Edo State, Nigeria. Materials and Methods: A cross sectional descriptive study was carried out in 12 Primary healthcare centers in Esan West local government area of Edo State. Wastes generated over 7 days were weighed daily. A checklist was used to record current practice, and Key informant interviews with officers in charge of facilities assessed Managements’ commitment to healthcare waste management. Statistical Package for the Social sciences (SPSS) version 15 was used for data analysis, and results presented as tables, with continuous variables summarized as means and standard deviations. Results: Mean waste generation for all the facilities was 0.21/kg/bed/day. Waste re-use and segregation was minimal , storage was in open baskets, with safety boxes used for sharps, and final disposal was by burial or burning. Policies on healthcare waste management were unknown, and there was no budget for waste management. Conclusion: Waste management remains a public health concern at the Primary Healthcare level in Edo State. Addressing this problem will necessarily start with gaining support from health managers at this level of healthcare delivery." @default.
