The increasing awareness about the risks on public health and environment, caused by solid residues generated by health service, is mainly due to its infectious fractions. In Brazil, there's thousand health units producing these residues and, in most cities, the handling issue and final arrangement are not yet resolved. The Irmandade da Santa Casa of São Gabriel, RS, acknowledging its responsability as generator of health residues sought to adjust to the legislation and minimize the impacts caused on the environment and others afected by its activities. Thus, the present study sought to, through exploratory research, analyze the conditions of the management of solid wastes on health services which are produced by Irmandade da Santa Casa in order to verify the compliance with the existing legal standards. The present study used the resolution of the executive board ( DC ) 306/2004 of the National Health Surveillance Agency ( ANVISA ), the Resolution 358/2005 of the National Environment Council ( CONAMA ) , and 2010 12.305 law which establishes the national policy on solid waste to evaluate and compare the reality of the institution. Through research it was possible to identify strengths and weaknesses on the management of waste as well as some necessary adjustments based on the current legislation.Downloads

Ethical Guidelines for Journal Publication
The Ciência e Natura journal is committed to ensuring ethics in publication and quality of articles.
Conformance to standards of ethical behavior is therefore expected of all parties involved: Authors, Editors, Reviewers, and the Publisher.
In particular,
Authors: Authors should present an objective discussion of the significance of research work as well as sufficient detail and references to permit others to replicate the experiments. Fraudulent or knowingly inaccurate statements constitute unethical behavior and are unacceptable. Review Articles should also be objective, comprehensive, and accurate accounts of the state of the art. The Authors should ensure that their work is entirely original works, and if the work and/or words of others have been used, this has been appropriately acknowledged. Plagiarism in all its forms constitutes unethical publishing behavior and is unacceptable. Submitting the same manuscript to more than one journal concurrently constitutes unethical publishing behavior and is unacceptable. Authors should not submit articles describing essentially the same research to more than one journal. The corresponding Author should ensure that there is a full consensus of all Co-authors in approving the final version of the paper and its submission for publication.
Editors: Editors should evaluate manuscripts exclusively on the basis of their academic merit. An Editor must not use unpublished information in the editor's own research without the express written consent of the Author. Editors should take reasonable responsive measures when ethical complaints have been presented concerning a submitted manuscript or published paper.
Reviewers: Any manuscripts received for review must be treated as confidential documents. Privileged information or ideas obtained through peer review must be kept confidential and not used for personal advantage. Reviewers should be conducted objectively, and observations should be formulated clearly with supporting arguments, so that Authors can use them for improving the paper. Any selected Reviewer who feels unqualified to review the research reported in a manuscript or knows that its prompt review will be impossible should notify the Editor and excuse himself from the review process. Reviewers should not consider manuscripts in which they have conflicts of interest resulting from competitive, collaborative, or other relationships or connections with any of the authors, companies, or institutions connected to the papers.
