This inclides expertise in management and treatment for medical, pharmaceutical and hazardous waste in healthcare facilities across Southern California.

What is Medical Waste? Medical Waste is broadly classified as any item that comes into contact with human bodily fluids. More specifically, it can be defined as any solid waste that is generated in the diagnosis, treatment or immunization of humans. Medical waste also includes paper towels, wipes, gloves, syringes without needles, bandages or dressings with small amounts of dry blood or fluid, and any other material from medical care. Syringes with needles or sharp objects that can piece through a plastic bag require a special storage container for additional protection. Typically, bright red biohazardous containers and bags can be seen throughout hospitals and medical offices and are used to safely remove sharps, needles, and IV catheters that contain any human blood or bodily fluid.

With our MedTrustLA Medical Waste services, we serve small to mid-size waste generators delivering regulatory compliance at affordable business rates. By combining all of your regulated medical waste requirements along with your other eWaste recycling, document security, and hard-drive destruction needs under Paper Cuts as a single provider, you can benefit greatly from cost efficiencies and service integration. We offer both mailback and pickup service solutions in order to meet your specific needs based on individual locations.

• Hospitals
• Hospice

Safe and proper management of unused or expired ultimate user medications in hospitals, clinics and long-term care facilities must always be handled by professionals. The DEA has released regulations under the Secure and Responsible Drug Disposal Act that allows commingled collection of controlled (Schedules II-V) and non-controlled medications from ultimate users in long-term care facilities, hospitals/clinics with onsite pharmacies and narcotics treatment centers.

As a provider of regulatory compliant services for the healthcare market, our MedTrustLA Medical Waste Specialists focus on small to mid-size generators of medical waste, and pharmaceutical waste waste.

Our ultimate goal is to always provide you with all of the best professional recycling and medical waste services, including shredding, recycling, destruction in Southern California at affordable rates that will help you meet your bottom line.

Medical Sharps —— any medical object that can cut or pierce the skin —— can be dangerous and must be handled by trained professionals. One needle stick can take a life, or deliver thousands in fines from the EPA or other government entities. Regulations that govern usage of Sharps are always in flux, and can change drastically across state or even local lines. Being sure to err on the side of safety can can be very expensive. From a medical perspective, there’s an added element from potential contamination by bloodborne pathogens. Because this combination can spread disease, proper sharps disposal is always a priority in any healthcare facility.

Examples of typical sharps requiring special disposal in a safety container include:

• Needles - Hollow needles used for injecting medications.
• Syringes - Medical injection plungers used to provide dosage of drugs that may have needles attached.
• Lancets - AKA “fingerstick” devices. These short, double-edged blades are used to get blood drops for testing.
• Infusion Sets - Tubing/needle systems used to deliver medications beneath the skin.
• EPI Pens - Auto injectors pre-filled with epinephrine in case of anaphylactic shock.

• Insulin Pens - Injectors that are pre-filled with insulin for diabetics.
• Connection Needles/Sets - Needles that connect to tubes. Mainly used for home hemodialysis patients.
• Scalpels - Medical and other cutting blades.
• Scissors - Medical scissors used to cut flesh or dressings.
• Glass - Even unbroken glass that hasn’t necessarily been contaminated may still need sharps disposal.
• Sharp Plastics - Special plastics that may need disposal.
