Get Help from A Local Full-Service Biomedical Waste Management Company

One of the key pieces to the health care management puzzle is biomedical waste management. This obligation in the industry serves to keep patients (and your employees!) safe, and vital personal health information secure.

A full-service biomedical waste management company provides you with the ease of managing a single contract, rather than having to seek out different companies to handle each type of waste produced. It also prevents your team from juggling the payments, scheduling and logistics of multiple companies.

Ultimately, your decision of which full-service biomedical waste management company to work with should come down to more than just finding a good price. Choosing a partner for serving your patients, employees and your business fulfills other priceless purposes, such as:

Ensuring compliance

State and Federal governing laws require OSHA medical facility compliance, HIPPA compliance, Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) compliance, and more. Proper disposal of sharps waste and red bag waste isn’t an option. It’s the law!

From red bag bio medical, pathological and medical waste to sharps disposal, and patient information documents to hard drive destruction, a certified full-service biomedical waste management company frees you from worrying about compliance issues from start to finish.

Increasing ease of safe disposal practices

Statistics show that American hospitals produce approximately 5.9 million tons of medical waste… that breaks down to almost 29 lbs. of medical waste per day per staffed bed! This creates a massive need for a simple and safe way to dispose of these needles, ampules, blades, infectious waste, blood products, contaminated personal protective equipment (PPE), IV tubing and more! Partnering with a trusted local biomedical waste management company ensures that your facility gets the specialized attention and service necessary to manage all areas easily and safely.

Reducing Liability

When a biomedical destruction company improperly disposes of waste or mishandles critical components of your patients’ personal health information (PHI), not only can a transporter be held liable, but so can you be! The fines, public outcry and other severe consequences that come with errors such as these can be devastating.

The full-service company you choose to partner with is more likely to be heavily insured and to also carry the proper licenses and permits that equip them to make educated, legal and secure decisions with your sensitive documents and biomedical waste. Find a service that can guarantee you 100% compliance with all state and federal regulations.

The Power of Staying Local

When contracting with behemoth-sized national waste destruction services, you lose the opportunity for receiving truly personalized service. Working with a local service gives you access to a company who actually knows you and your business on an individualized level. There is a deep value in having a trusted local professional who can come directly to you to personalize your business profile and become aware of your location’s unique needs. This interactive experience provides you with the flexibility of pickup scheduling, the respect that is cultivated through long-term relationship, and the speed of service from local service representatives desperately needed in times of crisis.
