Inspection Visit Note – DHQ Hospital Ziarat
The EPA team, under the supervision of Assistant Director EPA Ziarat and led by Inspector Asmat, conducted an inspection visit to DHQ Hospital Ziarat under the relevant Environmental Compliance and Hospital Waste Management regulations.
During the inspection, it was observed that the overall cleanliness, hygiene, and waste management conditions had significantly deteriorated compared to previous inspections. Several environmental and hygiene violations were observed, with waste found scattered in different areas and inadequate cleanliness inside the hospital wards.
Furthermore, the Medical Superintendent (MS) was not present in the office, and sufficient relevant staff was also unavailable to properly assist the EPA inspection team.
Despite these circumstances, the EPA team conducted the inspection thoroughly and assessed the hospital’s environmental compliance and waste management practices.
