| Abstract (English): | Introduction: Activities in hospitals have environmental impacts which may pose risks to human and environmental health if they are not managed correctly. For this reason, it is necessary to implement an environmental management plan in hospitals that not only focuses on solid waste management but includes all aspects associated with health within institutions. Objective: To review environmental management aspects related to public hospitals in order to identify environmental management alternatives and aspects to improve. Materials and methods: Descriptive qualitative study with crosssectional design, which identifies some of the most important characteristics of environmental management in hospitals. Results: The general approach to environmental management in hospitals is related to the management of solid waste, and other aspects that have a negative environmental impact on the surrounding areas, such as energy and water consumption, food handling and medication waste, among others, are not properly addressed.

| Abstract (Spanish): | Introducción. La actividad de los hospitales genera impactos ambientales que sin un manejo adecuado originan riesgos para la salud humana y ambiental; por esta razón, es necesaria una gestión ambiental hospitalaria que no solo se enfoque en el manejo de los residuos sólidos, sino que incluya todos los aspectos ambientales asociados a la actividad de las instituciones de salud. Objetivos. Revisar los aspectos de la gestión ambiental en los hospitales públicos para identificar alternativas de manejo ambiental y aspectos por mejorar. Materiales y métodos. Estudio cualitativo de corte descriptivo, con diseño transversal, que identifica algunas de las características más relevantes de la gestión ambiental en hospitales. Resultados. Se identificó que el enfoque generalizado de la gestión ambiental en los hospitales corresponde al manejo de los residuos sólidos hospitalarios y se descuidan otros aspectos que producen un impacto ambiental negativo en el ambiente próximo como consumo de energía, consumo de agua, manejo de alimentos y manejo de medicamentos, entre otros.
