Introduction: ISO 14000 standards series can increase competitiveness, productivity, and hospitals’ credibility and reduce costs and lead environmental management syst-ems into green hospitals with low impact on the environment. This study aims to dete-rmine solutions of meeting green hospital standards in Yazd educational hospitals based on ISO 14000 standards series in 2013. Materials and Methods: This research is an applied, descriptive study carried out in 2013. The study population included Yazd educational hospitals. Using a ques-tionnaire, the required data were collected based on variables of environmental man-agement system in hospitals.The content validity was approved regarding the design and quantification of instrument while reliability was confirmed by pre-test using Cronbah alpha Coefficient as 0.9314. The SPSS software (version 16.0) was used for statistical analysis. Findings: Based on results of this research, comparing ten variables on green hospital management in four Yazd educational hospitals with hypothetical average (3) using one sample t-test indicated that there is no significant difference among four educational hospitals (P = 0.734 CI = 95%). Furthermore, results of Kruskal-Wallis test demonstrated a significant difference am-ong the hospitals (P = 0.035 CI=95%). Finally, HCA technique resulted in clusteringsimilar questions in line with their corresponding answers. Discussion and Conclusion: The findings of this research showed that inadequate attention to environmental strategies, ina-dequate environmental training, improper management of wastes, inadequate allocate-on of fund for the management of wast-ewater and emission of pollutants into the air are the most important obstacles in achieving green hospital standards in Yazd educational hospitals and developing ma-nagement strategies and their imple-mentation by continuous training seems essential.
