Medical Waste Collection & Disposal

Improper dumping of medical waste rampant

Lala Lajpat Rai Hospital, which is said to be the main hospital of the city, lags behind as far as proper disposal of hazardous medical waste is concerned.
Burning of the medical waste openly, poses a problem for the patients at LLR and its associated units. The authorities refused to comment on the issue and straightaway denied that the hazardous medical waste is burnt openly. But the fact remains that the medical waste is burnt openly at the hospital.

Not only this, bio-medical waste generated at LLR and its associated hospitals is buried and gets exposed to stray dogs.
The authorities cited lack of funds as the reason for failing to subscribe to the common bio-medical waste treatment facility.

Only about 40 per cent of the establishments at LLR have equipment to mutilate needles and syringes. The remaining establishments throw untreated used needles and syringes into municipal garbage bins or even on the open ground at LLR.
These needles cause injuries to animals. Scavengers who come to clean the bins are often injured. Rag-pickers pick the needles for repackaging and resale illegally.
A class-IV employee said that four to five cases of used needles pricking the staff members occurred in past few months.

Most of the hazardous medical waste of LLR, Bal Rog Hospital, and Upper India Suger Exchange Jaccha-Baccha Hospital is thrown in the open ground.
Whereas, the waste of Morari Lal Chest Hospital, JK Cancer Hospital, Cardiology and Sankramak Rog Hospital is disposed at the Medical Pollution Control Committee (MPCC) in Panki.

According to the doctors of LLR, this mismanagement is due to the leniency of class IV employees, who throw the waste in open. Whereas the class IV employees passed the buck on the authorities. They say that the officials ask them to do so in order to misuse the diesel funds.
LLR Hospital has an insinuator which can dispose nearly 100 kg of medical waste per day. The insinuator runs for three hours daily and dispose 40 kg waste per hour. Even then, if the waste is burnt in the open it is due to the laxity of the class IV employees, said Dr CS Singh, chief medical superintendent.
