Abstract

The most importance of hospital environmental management must be pay attention on worker behavior in theireveryday practicing at hospital. Therefore, the most rapid and cheapest mean is to challenge the worker to collaborate energyeffectively utilization, waste management, wastewater management and landscape architectural environment via the humanresource strengthening with the worker based on the concept positive thinking like as owner. Environmental education concept ispertinent to sustainable principles that covers knowledge and understanding, awareness, attitudes, values, and belief,responsibility, participation, and skill necessary to build a sustainable hospital management. The objective of this research wasto develop hospital environmental management in Roi-Et Province through PAIC Process. The integrative research will be donewith quantitative in terms of survey research and participatory action research with Participatory Appreciate-Influence-Controltechnique (PAIC) ) and qualitative focus group discussion. Populations are all hospital workers. The sample was selectedaccording to purposive sampling technique. The PAIC was implemented with hospital workers integrating with SWOT Analysisand brain storming in the process. During training, Three Dimensional Evaluation (TDE) covers self-evaluation, friendevaluation,and facilitator evaluation. One -Way-ANOVA, and t-test were used for data analysis. The research results illustratedthat before and after PAIC process implemented, the mean scores of posttest of knowledge of environmental educationprinciples, energy conservation, waste water management, solid and infectious waste management, green landscape andtraining achievement were higher than pretest with statistical significance (p< .01, p< .01, p< .01, p< .01, p< .01, and p< .01 ).Three Dimensional Evaluations were employed for determination the perceptions of 32 hospital workers in three aspectsevaluation covering Self-evaluation, Friend-evaluation, and Facilitator-evaluation by using One-way ANOVA in order toinvestigate the participation of hospital workers showed that there were no difference of mean scores about participation intraining process through brain storming with statistical significance (p>.05).

Abstract

The populations were 270 workers of Roi-ed Thonburi Hospital in Northeastern region of Thailand. The populations of270 workers were used as sample group. The questionnaire was used as instrument for data collection. LISREL was used formodel verification. Considering on structural model confirmatory factors of Environmental Education (EE) and HospitalEnvironmental Management (EM) were able to explain the variation of endogenous factors of Inspiration of PublicConsciousness (PM) to caused Environmental Conservation Behaviors (CB) with 72.00 percents. As a result, the equation 1 canbe written as following.CB = 0.51*PM - 0.13*EE + 0.34*EM ………………………………(1)R2 = 0.72Equation (1) factors that had the most effect to Environmental Conservation Behaviors (CB) was Inspiration of PublicConsciousness (PM) and subsequences were Hospital Environmental Management (EM) and Environmental Education (EE)with negative direction, these were able to explained the variation of Environmental Conservation Behaviors (CB) with 72.00percents.Moreover, confirmatory factors of Environmental Education (EE) and Hospital Environmental Management (EM) wereable to explain the variation of confirmatory factors of Inspiration of Public Consciousness (PM) with 63.00 percents. Therefore,the equation can be written as following equation 2.PM = 0.17*EE + 0.44*EM …………………………..…………….(2)R2 = 0.63Equation (2) factors that had the most effect to was Inspiration of Public Consciousness (PM) and subsequences were HospitalEnvironmental Management (EM) and Environmental Education (EE), these were able to explained the variation of Inspiration ofPublic Consciousness (PM) with 63.00 percents
