What Antioch Acres Property Owners Ask About Biohazard Waste Removal

What should I do if someone is stuck by a needle?

Wash the area with soap and water and get medical care right away. Call 911 in an emergency. Poison Control can answer exposure questions. Tell the doctor what happened and, if you can, where the needle was found.

How should I store sharps until the team arrives?

Leave the items where they are if you can, and keep people and pets away. Do not try to move loose needles by hand. When you call, ask whether the team can bring a container, and follow its advice. If anyone is stuck, wash the area and get medical care.

Do you remove waste left behind after a death?

A cleanup team can remove medical waste left after a death, such as needles, soaked supplies or contaminated linens. If the death involved a crime or an investigation, work starts only after authorities release the property. Ask about discreet arrival when you call.

How long does a pickup take?

A small pickup can be quick, while rooms of mixed waste or a spill cleanup take longer. The time depends on the amount of waste, access to the property and whether surfaces need cleaning. A cleanup team can give a realistic idea once it hears the details.

What counts as medical waste?

Medical waste is waste that may carry germs. Examples include used needles and syringes, dressings soaked with blood or bodily fluids, and clinical waste from a practice or lab. A cleanup team can look at what you have and explain how each item is handled. You do not need to sort it first.

What are bloodborne pathogens?

They are germs that spread through blood and some other body fluids. Hepatitis B, hepatitis C and HIV are examples. Workers who may come into contact with them are covered by the OSHA Bloodborne Pathogens Standard, 29 CFR 1910.1030.

Need a sharps container or soaked dressings picked up in Antioch Acres?
