Medical Waste Disposal Questions From Bonner-West Riverside and Missoula County
Where can I dispose of biohazard waste?
Options depend on the amount and the place. Some counties and pharmacies have drop-off points for small household sharps. For larger amounts, clinical waste or items from a cleanup, a biohazard pickup service takes the waste to a proper facility. The local health department can describe local programs.
Is a sharps container the same as a biohazard bin?
Not exactly. A sharps container is a rigid, puncture-resistant box made for needles and similar items. A biohazard bin or bag holds other contaminated waste, such as soaked dressings. A cleanup team uses both and seals them for transport.
Do I need to be home during the pickup?
In many cases the person who calls does not need to be at the property. Ask the team how access and keys can be arranged. If you are out of town, say so when you call. Many teams can arrive in an unmarked vehicle, so ask if privacy matters.
What are bloodborne pathogens?
They are germs that spread through blood and some other body fluids. Hepatitis B, hepatitis C and HIV are examples. Workers who may come into contact with them are covered by the OSHA Bloodborne Pathogens Standard, 29 CFR 1910.1030.
What counts as medical waste?
Medical waste is waste that may carry germs. Examples include used needles and syringes, dressings soaked with blood or bodily fluids, and clinical waste from a practice or lab. A cleanup team can look at what you have and explain how each item is handled. You do not need to sort it first.
What should I do if someone is stuck by a needle?
Wash the area with soap and water and get medical care right away. Call 911 in an emergency. Poison Control can answer exposure questions. Tell the doctor what happened and, if you can, where the needle was found.
