Course Introduction:

One of the biggest challenges facing healthcare workers is how to properly dispose of medical waste, which significantly impacts their work. The issue is not solely about the type or quantity of waste produced, but rather the sanitary method of disposal. Medical waste carries various germs and contaminants, including bacteria and viruses, which can spread through the air and harm both humans and the environment. Medical waste has gained attention from health administrations concerning how to manage and handle it, particularly in mitigating its effects both inside and outside healthcare facilities. Most of this waste consists of medical materials and tools, such as catheters and injections of all types, with an expected daily output of more than two containers per healthcare center. Therefore, it is essential to find effective solutions to reduce its risks.

The British Academy for Training and Development offers medical waste and hazardous materials and methods of health protection, improving the system of medical waste management through preventive methods, methods and techniques, to every person and a medical worker who understands the importance of developing health services through the maintenance of public health.
