CONCLUSION
Safe and effective management
of bio-medical waste is not only
a legal necessity but also a
Social Responsibility.
Bio-Medical Waste Management
cannot successfully be implemented
without the willingness, devotion, self-
motivation, cooperation and
participation of all sections of
employees of any health care
establishment.
If we want to protect our environment
and health of the community we must
see ourselves to this important issue
not only in the interest of health
managers but also in the interest of
community.
