Abstract

Background: The generation of solid medical waste Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) generated in special facilities for Covid19 isolation is increasing and is an infectious waste that poses a risk of transmitting Covid19 to the environment. The occupancy rate (BOR) in the Covid19 special isolation room at Suryah Khairudin Hospital in 2020 was 14.75% of 51 beds, with an average number of inpatients 13 people/month, the total amount of solid medical waste PPE produced reached 60.69 kg/month.
Subjects and Method: This was a descriptive qualitative study. The study informants were waste management officers. The data were obtained from interviews and observation. The data were extracted and analyzed using SWOT analysis.
Results: The PPE solid medical waste management system at the Suryah Khairudin Hospital as a special Covid19 facility in West Tanjung Jabung Regency is quite good in terms of sorting, transportation is carried out less than 24 hours after being collected, and processing is carried out using incinerator. This is in accordance with KMK No. HK 01.07/MENKES/537/2020. Meanwhile, what has not been fulfilled is the labeling of plastic bags containing PPE waste because the use of black bags is still found but it is not labeled "biohazard" or a description of COVID19 waste, there are no TPS that meet the requirements in accordance with PermenLHK No. 56 of 2015 for storing Covid19 medical waste before processing it using an incinerator and the lack of awareness of waste transport officers in the use of PPE in carrying out their duties.
Conclusion: The importance of providing biohazard symbols or information on Covid19 waste, socializing officers on the importance of using PPE, accelerating the implementation of making TPS that meet standards and building collaboration with surrounding companies to get support in the form of assistance for activities related to the management of PPE solid medical waste in special Covid19 facilities. 19 can be done well.
Keywords: Covid19, PPE solid medical waste, waste management system
