<![CDATA[Knowledge is a resource that health facilities are now seeking to enhance and enrich with the aim of increased performance. The main objective is to determine the level of knowledge, attitudes and practices of the staff of the provincial hospital of Sidi Slimane on the hospital waste management system. Our survey was carried out on 84 people working in the different departments of the hospital. The assessment of this state of knowledge was based on a questionnaire designed for this.The results of this study show that over 70% of respondents answered that medical and pharmaceutical wastes (MPW) is a problem for their health and confirmed that they knows the steps of MPW management.However, 70.2% (n = 59) of caregivers responded that they had not received any training in hospital waste management. In addition, 11 out of 25 caregivers who responded that they had received training, they had it as a traineeship, 6 out of 25 said they had attended to seminars. The staff surveyed believes that the awareness actions carried out by the hospital administration are insufficient and that the hospital staffs are not well informed in terms of hospital waste management (news, regulations, etc.).]]>
