WASTE MANAGEMENT PROTOCOL-2015
The waste management lead and team of volunteers are responsible for overseeing and
removing general and medical waste from the clinic floor. Since waste management
volunteers are exposed to biohazard waste individuals must have a current Hepatitis B
vaccination. Please wear gloves at all times.
Set-Up:
 Distribute waste baskets, lined with white bags to all areas on the floor, including non clinical areas.
 Add orange Home Depot buckets, lined with 5 gallon red biohazard bags, to the clinic
areas. Place directly next to waste baskets in that area.
 If multiple baskets/buckets are listed for an area, evenly distribute throughout section
for easy access by multiple providers (i.e. under tables for access on either side).

Clinic Days:
Waste baskets, biohazard buckets and sharps should be constantly monitored, and only
removed when FULL in order to conserve bags. Once full:
 Tie off waste bags and discard in large trash bin located in the service corridor
behind halls A1 & B, accessible through unlocked man door. Replace liner in trash
can.
 Carefully tie of biohazard bags and place in biohazard cardboard receptacles,
located in the hallway at the back of hall A1. When receptacle is full with tightly
packed red bags, place lid on box. Replace red liner in bucket.
 Sharps containers should only be collected and replaced when completely FULL.
Full sharps containers can be placed in the hallway in the back of hall A1, next to
cardboard receptacles. Please do not add extra sharps containers to treatment
areas. Use guideline above for distribution for run of show.
If you notice a large amount of trash placed in the red biohazard bags, please notify the
lead of the department of this problem. Ask that they remind their volunteers of the correct
waste management protocol and the items that belong in the biohazard bags (items soaked
or saturated with blood or saliva (e.g., gauze saturated with blood after surgery), extracted
teeth, surgically removed hard and soft tissues). Once trash is placed in red biohazard
bags, it cannot be removed.
