Description
Summary:[...]some bacteria can remain in water and adapt to all physicochemical environmental conditions before any contamination [6]. [...]it has been shown that some chemical contaminants have adverse effects on human health as a result of exposure to water, especially drinking water [7]. [...]there is a need to identify and assess the main health risks associated with water use in health care facilities, in order to determine how to address and how to control these risks. With respect to hydrogen potential (pH), characterized by ions concentration in water [14], maximum value (7.69) and minimum one (7.14) were respectively observed in March and April (fig2). [...]mean value was observed in women's surgery ward and the maximum value was recorded in the children's surgery unit (table 2). [...]the values found in this study respect both Moroccan drinking water standards "NM 03.7.001" [15] and WHO ones [16].
