dc.description.abstract	This study entitled Hospital Waste Management: A Case Study of 2 Tertiary Hospitals in Ermita, Manila focused on the actual practices of waste management of PGH and Manila Doctors Hospital in accordance with the rules set by the MMDA through MMDA Ordinance No. 16 and by the Department of Health through its Manual On Hospital Waste Management. The study compares the practices of waste management between a public and a private hospital and identifies the stages in the waste handing process where violations of the provisions of the two guidelines occur. Further, the study also looked in the weaknesses found in the two guidelines and provided recommendations on both the waste management of the two hospitals as well as on the laws pertaining to the regulation of this practice.	en_US
