Sağlık tesislerinde su, sanitasyon ve hijyen hizmetlerine erişimin iyileştirilmesi

Abstract

To the Editor,The general notion of going to a health care facility is to get well or to avail services like family planning, immunization or treatment of diseases 1 . It is quite obvious that nobody goes to a health care facility to become sick, but still millions of people are prone to acquire the hospital-induced infections owing to the lack of basic services, including water, sanitation, hygiene, health care waste and cleaning (WASH) services 2 . In-fact, the available global estimates reflect that close to 900 million and 1.5 billion people avail services from those health facilities with no water or access to sanitation services respectively 1 .
