Background: Application of strategic management processes at the local level can lead to design and development of efficient systems of energy, wastewater management, and air pollution prevention. This process is only possible through attention to the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats of the location. This study was conducted with the aim of achieving optimal green management strategies for the abovementioned systems using the Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, and Threats (SWOT) analysis model in educational hospitals of Yazd, Iran.Methods: This was an applied and descriptive-analytical study. The research was performed using a checklist, and through interviews with health professionals and educational hospitals administrators during October to March 2013. Internal and external matrices were used for data analysis and the SWOT model was used for formulation of strategies.Findings: The results showed that the suggested strategies for green management of the systems were SO, WO, ST, and WT, respectively. The SO green hospital strategic management plans emphasize to the fulfillment of applicable plans based on new technologies to reduce water and energy consumption,to consider all available techniques for reusing wastewater or sewage sludge, to develop the content of air pollution prevention laws, and to provide an annual progress report for the green management implementation in different wards of the educational hospitals.Conclusion: The results showed that focus on SO strategy in respect to maximizing the use of available internal assets and external opportunities should be the priority for managers of the educational hospitals for the implementation of green management and improvement of the quality of health and medical services.
