spelling oai:open.uct.ac.za:11427/10359 The development and institutionalisation of an integrated health care waste information system Delcarme, Brian Roode, JD Brown, Irwin Commerce Includes bibliographical references. Waste management generally in South Africa is poorly defined and practised, and the inadequate management of health care waste (HCW) has been recognised by the South African government as a significant environmental and public health risk. The literature revealed that an integrated health care waste information system (IHCWIS) serves as an important intervention to address the issue of poor health care waste management (HCWM). The overall key research question which this research asked was: "How does an IHCWIS develop and become institutionalised among health care waste generators?" The aim of the research was to gather empirical data to understand how the development and institutionalisation of an IHCWIS contributes to effective HCWM. 2014-12-28T14:50:26Z 2014-12-28T14:50:26Z 2012 Doctoral Thesis Doctoral PhD http://hdl.handle.net/11427/10359 eng application/pdf Department of Information Systems Faculty of Commerce University of Cape Town
