Education and Training: Educate staff about the importance of recycling and the types of materials that can be recycled. 2. Segregation of Waste: Ensure proper segregation of recyclable and non-recyclable materials at the point of disposal. 3. Collaboration: Work with hospital management to establish and maintain recycling programs. 4. Advocacy: Advocate for the inclusion of recycling policies in hospital protocols and engage in initiatives that promote sustainability.
