Abstract

The global target that must be achieved regarding universal and equitable access to safe and affordable drinking water for all is the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) Goal 6, namely that universal access to safe drinking water fulfills the 4K. Namely quantity, quality, continuity, and affordability, and all households have access to adequate sanitation. According to the SDGs, safe drinking water is drinking water that is fit for consumption and free from fecal contamination and certain chemicals. Water quality at the point of consumption is strongly influenced by drinking water management factors at the household level, such as processing, storage and storage factors for raw water or drinking water sources. This research was conducted in October 2022, the sample in this study was the community as many as 98 respondent. In terms of quantity, the basic needs for water (food and drink) have been fulfilled, in terms of the quality of drinking water they have not been met, in terms of continuity they have been fulfilled, and in terms of affordability it is affordable in terms of distance, but not yet affordable in terms of price. The lack of quality and affordability can be met by adding free drinking water facilities and using rainwater.

The study was conducted by collecting secondary data in the form of medical and non-medical solid waste generation data from hospitals before and during the Covid-19 pandemic. Primary data through filling out questionnaires and in-depth interviews. The number of respondents was 34 people consisting of a sanitarian team of 4 people, 12 Pinere room nurses, 2 garbage collectors, 9 waste sorters, 6 waste processors, and 1 person from the management team, namely the Head of the Household Sub-department. The results of the study were that during the Covid-19 pandemic there was an increase in the amount of medical and non-medical solid waste. The biggest medical waste generation occurred in 2021 which was 2 times that of 2020. The obstacle in managing solid waste at the Regional General Hospital in X Province during the Covid-19 pandemic was the lack of careful human resources in following SOPs and the lack of human resources in waste collection activities. The medical solid waste management strategy uses the strength and opportunity strategy because the results of the SWOT analysis show advantages in the strengths and opportunities of the Regional General Hospital X. The strategy implemented is to improve the quality and competence of human resources for nurses and solid waste managers and improve the supporting infrastructure for medical and non-medical solid waste management.
