    The lack of environmental regulations which regulate the activities that present considerable levels of risk to the environment triggers a series of serious problems in a hospital, among these problems are the generation of hazardous waste, mismanagement of resources, and excessive consumption of supplies by staff, so this research work aims to develop an environmental management system based on ISO 14001:2015 for the private hospital "Tungurahua" S.A. The project is based on a quali-quantitative approach because an initial diagnosis is made through a checklist which allows to determine the level of compliance with the requirements of the standard according to ISO 14001:2015 allowing in turn to identify the documentary needs of the hospital. Similarly, the UNE 150008:2008 standard aims to identify the environmental aspects and impacts that present some level of risk to the environment in which the hospital's activities are carried out. Once the checklist was applied, it was determined that the level of compliance with the standard is 20.92% with respect to its requirements. In addition, with the analysis and evaluation of the environmental risk, it was observed that the scenarios with a moderate level of risk are the generation of hazardous and infectious waste, as well as emissions to water through the sewage system and seismic events that may occur in the locality, among others. It is concluded that the implementation of environmental management system documentation is necessary as it will improve environmental performance and contribute to the financial interests of the hospital.
