Medical Waste Disposal
How MediWaste Streamlines Medical Waste Disposal for Producers: Less Hassle, More Care
For healthcare facilities like care homes, dental practices, GP surgeries, and hospitals, managing medical waste disposal can be a time-consuming and complex burden. Navigating regulations, finding reliable collectors, and ensuring proper disposal practices takes valuable resources away from delivering quality patient care.
Statistic:
Every year, NHS providers produce approximately 156,000 tonnes of clinical waste that is either sent to high temperature incineration (HTI) or for alternative treatment (AT), which is equivalent to over 400 loaded jumbo jets of waste. This has a significant environmental impact and is associated with high running costs and carbon emissions. Therefore, as one of the largest producers of waste in the country, it is vital that the NHS disposes it in a safe, efficient and sustainable manner, and we are only creating waste when absolutely necessary.
