What Is Medical Waste?
Medical waste includes any material that may be infectious, contaminated, or hazardous. Common examples are:
- Used needles and sharps
- Blood-soaked bandages
- Contaminated PPE (gloves, masks, gowns)
- Pathological specimens
- Expired or unused pharmaceuticals
Improper disposal can spread disease, pollute our communities, and lead to steep regulatory fines.
Risks of Improper Disposal
Local clinics, dental offices, and veterinary practices in Illinois and Wisconsin aren’t exempt from the dangers of poor waste management. Consequences can include:
- Health hazards to staff, patients, and sanitation workers
- Environmental contamination in local waterways, landfills, or communities
- Fines and violations from state health departments and OSHA
- Public trust issues that affect a facility’s reputation
