Focus and Vision for Sustainable Biomedical Waste Management

Abstract

Medical health-care activities protect and saves lives, but what about the waste and by-products generated by these activities? So, in Journal of Indian Society of Hospital Waste Management, the journal has envisioned its next journey to become a contributing force and encouraging the young researchers towards these issues. We have now adapted an online submission and review system to make the digital presence and publishing process smooth.
We should raise awareness of the risks related to health-care waste, and of safe practices. Hospitals waste management requires increased attention and diligence to avoid adverse health outcomes associated these wastes, including exposure to infectious agents and toxic substances.
