Sanitation Safety Plan trial at Devanahalli - presentationbiometrust
This document summarizes a sanitation safety plan trial conducted in Devanahalli Town, Bangalore, India. It describes the current situation of solid and liquid waste management. Solid waste is collected door-to-door and transported to an open dumping site. Liquid waste from households and businesses flows into open storm drains, which often overflow and stagnate. Some farmers intercept waste water from drains to irrigate crops. Fecal sludge is emptied from pits by vacuum trucks and used untreated by some farmers. Health risks were assessed and priority improvements identified, such as drain rehabilitation, solid waste management, and sanitary worker training.

Congestive Heart failure is caused by low cardiac output and high sympathetic discharge. Diuretics reduce preload, ACE inhibitors lower afterload, beta blockers reduce sympathetic activity, and digitalis has inotropic effects. Newer medications target vasodilation and myosin activation to improve heart efficiency while lowering energy requirements. Combination therapy, following an assessment of cardiac function and volume status, is the most effective strategy to heart failure care.

9. Scope of WASH Activities
Water Supply:
Establishing sustained water supply through rehabilitation of existing/establishing new water sources, rehabilitation of
existing/installing new storage facilities, rehabilitating water distribution systems and ensuring functional water access
points at all locations where medical procures are undertaken through rehabilitation of the existing non-functional
facilities/installation of new facilities.
Water Quality:
Supporting Hospital staff and the MoWR on water quality testing and monitoring
Sanitation:
Establishing toilets and shower/bathroom facilities through rehabilitating existing dilapidated facilities/constructing new
ones, rehabilitation of existing waste water systems and onsite waste water disposal facilities (septic tanks) or
construction of new ones where applicable.
Healthcare Waste Management:
Establishing health care waste segregation system through provision of color coded waste collection bins at all
locations where waste is generated. Establishing health care waste management facilities (Incinerators, Ash pits,
Organic pits and sharps pits) through rehabilitation of the dilapidated existing facilities/construction of new ones.
Training:
Support Strengthening the capacity of hospital staff in operation, maintenance and management of the WASH facilities in
Health Facilities.

National WASH Coordination forum.
• Strengthened MoHS involvement in Coordinating activities through introduction of the SLA
approach for all projects targeting health facilities
• An opportunity for all partners implementing WASH in Health facilities, MoHS and MoWR to start
thinking of developing basic guidelines/standards for WASH in health facilities (Harmonized)
• Access to in-door sanitation facilities by the disabled persons in some of the existing health
facilities???
• Screening/Isolation Guidelines/Procedures at Various facility levels – define scope of facilities to be
put up
• Increased scope of assessments to cover all PHUs in 12 districts; having information on coverage
is critical for future planning of improvements.
