Sağlık Yönetiminde Sürdürülebilirlik: Sağlık Çalışanları Arasında Sürdürülebilirlik ve Atık Yönetimi Algısı Üzerine Bir Araştırma

Yıl 2024, Cilt: 6 Sayı: 1, 63 - 73, 06.06.2024

Öz

Arka Plan: Sağlık sektörü, özellikle atık yönetimi ve çevresel etki konularında sürdürülebilirlik açısından benzersiz zorluklarla karşı karşıyadır. Sağlık çalışanları, sağlık kurumları içinde sürdürülebilir uygulamaların hayata geçirilmesinde kritik bir rol oynamaktadır. Bu çalışma, sağlık yönetiminde sağlık çalışanlarının sürdürülebilirlik ve atık yönetimi konusundaki algılarını araştırmaktadır.
Yöntemler: Karma bir yöntem yaklaşımı kullanılmış olup, çeşitli sağlık kurumlarından 200 sağlık çalışanına dağıtılan bir anketle başlamış, ardından 50 katılımcıyla derinlemesine görüşmeler yapılmıştır. Anket, sağlık çalışanlarının sürdürülebilirlik ve atık yönetimi konusundaki farkındalık, tutum ve uygulamalarını değerlendirmiştir. Görüşmeler ise kişisel algıları ve deneymleri daha derinlemesine araştırmıştır.
Bulgular: Anket sonuçları, sağlık çalışanlarının çoğunun sürdürülebilirlik kavramlarından haberdar olduğunu göstermekle birlikte, özellikle atık yönetimi konusunda sürdürülebilir uygulamaların uygulanmasında önemli bir boşluk olduğunu ortaya koymuştur. Birçok katılımcı, daha sürdürülebilir uygulamalara katılmaya istekli olduklarını ancak yeterli eğitim ve kurumsal destek eksikliği yaşadıklarını belirtmiştir. Görüşmeler, kişisel motivasyonun genellikle kurumsal eksiklikleri telafi ettiğini ancak anlamlı bir etki için sistemli değişikliklerin gerekli olduğunu vurgulamıştır.
Tartışma: Bulgular, sağlık çalışanları için kapsamlı sürdürülebilirlik eğitimine olan ihtiyacı, düzenli mesleki gelişimlerine entegre edilmesi gerektiğini vurgulamaktadır. Kurumlar, özellikle atık yönetimi konusunda sürdürülebilir uygulamaları teşvik eden ve kolaylaştıran politikaları hayata geçirmelidir. Çalışma, sağlık kurumlarında sürdürülebilirlik kültürünün oluşturulmasının önemini de vurgulamaktadır.
Sonuç: Sağlık çalışanları genel olarak sağlık hizmetlerinde sürdürülebilirlik konusunda farkındalık sahibi ve destekleyicidir. Ancak, atık yönetimi konusunda özellikle farkındalık ile uygulama arasındaki boşluğun kapatılması için daha iyi eğitim, politikalar ve kurumsal destek gerekmektedir. Sürdürülebilir sağlık yönetimi, küresel çevresel hedeflere önemli ölçüde katkı sağlayabilir, ancak bunun için hem bireysel hem de kurumsal düzeyde ciddi çaba gerekmektedir.
Anahtar Kelimeler: Sürdürülebilirlik, Sağlık Yönetimi, Atık Yönetimi, Sağlık Çalışanları, Çevresel Etki, Sağlık Kurumları.

Sustainability in Health Management: A Research on the Perception of Sustainability and Waste Management Among Health Workers

Yıl 2024, Cilt: 6 Sayı: 1, 63 - 73, 06.06.2024

Öz

Background: The healthcare sector faces unique challenges in sustainability, particularly in waste management and environmental impact. Health workers play a crucial role in implementing sustainable practices within healthcare facilities. This study investigates the perceptions of health workers towards sustainability and waste management in health management.
Methods: A mixed-methods approach was employed, comprising a survey distributed to 200 health workers across various healthcare institutions, followed by in-depth interviews with 50 participants. The survey assessed awareness, attitudes, and practices regarding sustainability and waste management. Interviews explored personal perceptions and experiences in more depth.
Results: The survey revealed that while a majority of health workers are aware of sustainability concepts, there is a significant gap in the application of sustainable practices, especially in waste management. Many participants expressed a willingness to engage in more sustainable practices but reported a lack of adequate training and institutional support. The interviews highlighted that personal motivation often compensates for the institutional shortcomings, but systematic changes are necessary for meaningful impact.
Discussion: The findings underscore the need for comprehensive sustainability training for health workers, integrated into their regular professional development. Institutions should implement policies that encourage and facilitate sustainable practices, particularly in waste management. The study also highlights the importance of creating a culture of sustainability within healthcare facilities.
Conclusion: Health workers are generally aware and supportive of sustainability in healthcare. However, there is a need for improved training, policies, and institutional support to bridge the gap between awareness and practice, particularly in waste management. Sustainable healthcare management can significantly contribute to global environmental goals, but it requires concerted efforts at both individual and institutional levels.
