ABSTRACT
The study was carried out in 8 orphanages from Torreon, Mexico. The main purpose of the study was to assess children sanitary-hygienic conditions of meal's preparation in
orphanages. Also, an inquiry form was evolved which made possible recording of deviations from the required state of hygiene and from the sanitary-technical
requirements. Results of the study showed that in majority of orphanages the sanitary conditions of meal preparation were not satisfactory. Hygienic conditions varied greatly
between orphanages, and depended in a high degree on the commitment of the staff.The poor sanitary conditions in certain homes were due to poor technical state of the
buildings exploited during many years. Faulty were noted also due to negligence of the users of these homes. It is necessary to undertake current and remote future actions for
improving these conditions of orphanages from the viewpoint of hygiene.
