Objective:
to analyze the knowledge of the Nursing and Cleaning team professionals on the management of solid waste from health services.Method:
It is a quantitative, descriptive, exploratory study. Two questionnaires were used for data collection, one for the 53-member nursing team and the other for the 21-member cleaning team, addressing issues relevant to each professional category. The relative and absolute frequencies of the answers were calculated for measurement and comparison purposes.Results:
It was observed a high level of success of both groups interviewed, which may be associated to the fact that the institution maintains, in its Health Waste Management Plan, a program of continuous education, regardless of the type of employment relationship of the workers.Conclusion:
The conclusion is that the knowledge of the professionals involved about the correct practice of health waste management has proved to be satisfactory and here cleaning professionals are sometimes neglected. It is pointed out that one cannot deny the impact of this joint work on the institution's costs, on the workers' health and on the environment's preservation.(AU)
