The document discusses guidelines for the safe management of healthcare waste. Key points include:
- Healthcare waste should be segregated and categorized based on infection risk, hazardous properties, and required treatment/disposal. Colour coding is recommended.
- Targets are set to reduce various waste streams, including hazardous, clinical, and packaging waste sent for disposal.
- Recent regulations define more pharmaceutical waste as hazardous and prohibit mixing hazardous and non-hazardous waste. This requires improved waste segregation.
- Additional guidance is provided for waste management in community settings and by pharmacies. Pharmacies may accept certain unwanted medications but have restrictions on handling, storing, transporting and disposing of healthcare waste.
Laser Safety Training is mandatory for all Wayne State University faculty, staff, and students who are users of Class 3B and Class 4 lasers. This training is also strongly recommended for users of: Class 1M, Class 2, Class 2M, Class 3R, and Class 1 systems with embedded Class 3B and Class 4 lasers.
