This document provides instructions for safely disposing of medical sharps such as needles and syringes for individuals who cannot obtain a sharps disposal kit. It recommends using a thick plastic container like a detergent bottle and placing sharps needle-down into the container. Once the container is 3/4 full, it should be sealed with tape and labeled as medical waste before being disposed of separately from other garbage according to community guidelines. The document also notes that improper disposal of sharps can lead to injuries and disease and provides several phone numbers and websites for obtaining a free sharps disposal kit.
