Under the guidance of Lecturer Dr. Şerife Eylül DUMAN, a faculty member at the Vocational School, a project on "Recycling Unused Pharmaceutical Waste" was carried out by first-year students of the First Aid and Emergency Program as part of the "Responsibility Studies" course. This project aimed to promote environmental awareness for sustainable living by recycling discarded medications. Unused or expired medications were collected and delivered to the authorized health center's waste collection center. The collection, transportation, processing, and disposal of such waste are crucial for preventing environmental pollution and safeguarding public health, in terms of protecting natural resources. Through this project, our students strengthened their awareness of environmental health and took a sensitive step towards public health. We would like to thank Dr. Gökhan Dinçer and Nurse Funda Bağcı, who work at the Selçuklu 39 Ova Un Family Health Center, for their contributions to the realization of this event.
