At Trilogy MedWaste, we recognize the critical importance of safe medical sharps management and disposal within healthcare facilities, clinics, dentists, urgent cares, long-term care facilities, and other businesses dealing with medical waste. Sharps, being a common form of medical waste, encompass a broad spectrum of items such as needles, syringes, lancets, scalpels, and other devices crucial for patient care or medical procedures. Given their potential to cause injury and transmit infectious diseases, proper storage and disposal of these sharps is critical for the health and safety of your employees and patients.
Medical sharps encompass a variety of items used in healthcare settings that have the potential to puncture or lacerate the skin, posing a risk of injury and infection transmission. While compliance standards and categorizations vary at the local, state, and federal level, examples of items considered medical sharps include:
These items are essential tools in medical procedures but require proper handling and disposal to ensure the safety of healthcare workers, patients, and the community.
