Biomedical Waste Disposal

 

Waste produced in the healthcare sector may in significant part be considered as hazardous waste.

These latter items include textiles, bandages, syringes, and other objects exposed to infection through contact with patients. Medical waste disposal is one of the biggest day-to-day challenges faced by healthcare providers. It’s often complicated by other concerns like HIPAA, epidemiology, potential civil litigation, and state and local regulation.

This definition includes waste generated by healthcare facilities like physician’s offices, hospitals, dental practices, laboratories, medical research facilities, and veterinary clinics.
