SayPro HANDLING WASTE DISPOSAL IN A HOSPITAL ENVIRONMENT (SO 2, AC 3)
Below are guidelines for how waste handling would differ in a hospital environment:§ A larger range of waste would be generated.
- Biological waste, such as soiled cotton wool, dressings and bandages would need to be disposed of.
- There would be a large number of hazardous items, such as needles and syringes, razors, disposable surgical instruments e.g. scissors etc.
- Human waste such as bodily fluids and matter would need to be handled safely and disposed of hygienically and quickly to prevent spread of infection or disease.
- Chemical waste such as medicines and disinfectants would need to be handled correctly.
- Special protective clothing, including gloves, headgear, masks, gowns and even plastic covers for shoes would be issued.
- Most of the medical waste would be disposed of in sealed containers.
- Waste would be sorted and separated according to the type of waste
- A large amount of hospital waste is collected by an external agency, or incinerated.
