RESUMO

In this study it is approached the management of the health services solid waste at the Centro de Hematologia e Hemoterapia da UNICAMP (HEMOCAMP) ?HEMOCENTRO, in order to know the working and the efficiency of the Health Services Solid Waste Management Program (PGRSSS). Each process of this program was verified, since handling, segregation, packing, storage, collection, transportation, until the educational program. The characterization of the collected waste was performed in two stages: selection and quantification, within thirteen weeks, including spring, summer, autumn and winter. The action taken, as educational program for employees and patients, was also verified. The quantity of patients attended within that period was 9.400, resulting a 1,68 kg per patient waste generation rate. The amount of weighted waste was 15.856 kg and the amount of waste considered unsuitable was 532 kg. It was observed that the packing was not in compliance with the Associação Brasileira de Normas Técnicas, since the plastic bags with infecting waste had a volume above the permitted one and they were not well closed. Concerning the collection and internal transportation, it is necessary to re-evaluate route and time, to avoid that they occur during the patients attendance. It was verified that it is necessary to intensify the educational program on the PGRSSS
