What medical waste removal covers:
If anyone was stuck, cut or splashed, they wash with soap and water and get medical care. Then the crew prepares to work.
Crews bring the right containers for sharps, fluids and soaked items, so nothing is moved in a way that risks a stick.
The packed containers go straight to the vehicle. Owners and tenants never handle them.
You can ask the crew what was taken, and you get any paperwork that helps with insurance or a lease.
