Facility Types We Serve…

With 35+ years industry experience, Daniels is the leading expert in providing healthcare waste solutions to all-sized communities that supports and protects, rather than interrupts, patient care.

  • SENIOR LIVING COMMUNITIES

  • SKILLED NURSING & REHABILITATION

  • ASSISTED LIVING

  • HOSPICE CARE

Supporting The Continuum Of Care

In a primary care-based facility, we understand the need for solutions and services that maximize, rather than interrupt, the continuum of care. In senior living communities across the United States, infections are a major cause of hospitalization and death, estimated currently at between 1 to 3 million serious infections every year. Daniels’ solutions are engineered to not only provide safe containment and seamless servicing but also products and superior washing technology that minimize the risk of infection, minimize the number of touches, eliminate container assembly and plastic bags (common sources of cross-contamination) and provide a higher standard of security for environments accessed by residents and caregivers alike.

  • Beyond medical waste collection, scheduled pickups, and disposal, we focus on optimizing costs by:
  • Determining container types and sizes by the volume of waste your facility generates
  • Providing simple education that drives improved waste segregation and optimized container fills (we don’t want you paying for air!)
  • Delivering service schedules that align with what you need, to minimize patient or facility interruptions and minimize labor and costs.

We ensure that for each community we work with, we achieve the highest standards of safety, compliance, security, and invisibility in the minimizing of service interruptions. As partners, we work with each of our customers to develop a waste plan that will optimize the safety and efficiency of their facility, and through ongoing training and auditing, we ensure your costs are greatly reduced and you are freed to focus on those in your care.

Safe, Ecological and Cost-minimizing solutions for long term care facilities

The most innovative and cost-effective long-term care waste solutions in the United States

  • IMMEDIATE COST REDUCTION

    Daniels’ solutions eliminate unnecessary costs associated with throwing away bags, boxes, and disposable containers. Tamperproof and secure locking containers reduce risk liability.

  • POINT OF CARE DISPOSAL

    Daniels container accessories enable sharps, medical waste, and pharmaceutical containers to be positioned at the point of care. Options include wall mounting, bench mounting, static stands, and mobile trolleys, which can be wheeled to patient bedside.

  • MINIMIZED INFECTION TRANSFER

    Our reusable containers undergo a rigorous 6-stage robotic wash and sanitization process that eliminates challenge organisms and proves a 106 Log reduction in bacterial load. Containers are cleaned and sanitized after each use!

  • REDUCED CROSS CONTAMINATION

    Foot pedal operated accessories eliminate hand access and minimize odor expulsion; clinically designed containers with inbuilt safety trays and secure locking mechanisms ensure potentially harmful or infectious waste is concealed.

  • REUSABLE AND ECO FRIENDLY

    Our ecologically designed solutions positively impact sustainability targets, minimize landfills, and help reduce the CO2 burden for healthcare facilities. The elimination of boxes also reduces the cost of procurement, assembly time, and handling risk.

  • SAFETY AND COMPLIANCE

    Experts in navigating the complexities of local and federal regulations, Daniels partners with long-term care facilities to ensure compliant practices are achieved through all waste management practices and facility risk exposure is minimized.

Safety-Designed Medical Waste Systems

When a cardboard box for medical waste just won’t cut it in a beautiful patient environment!

When we sought out to change the way medical waste was managed in the United States, we started with‘would we place a cardboard box full of waste in our home environment’. The answer was no, so why would this be acceptable for a patient room? Across all 50 states, Daniels provides the safest, most secure, and most clinically advanced sharps, pharmaceutical and medical waste containers for healthcare facilities, combatting issues commonly associated with medical waste disposal including medications theft, leaking, needlestick injuries and cross contamination.

Dramatically reduced infection transfer risk

Using a foot-pedal opening mechanism and bagless system means hand contact with the container is no longer required.

This no-touch alternative results in a dramatic reduction in the infection transfer risk that currently exists using standard medical waste containers. The Medismart reusable system ensures that once full, each container is removed from your premises, emptied, and then subjected to a rigorous 6-stage robotic wash and sanitization process that eliminates challenge organisms and proves a 106 Log reduction in bacterial load.

Why Reusable Sharps containers are better for the environment

As healthcare facilities across the United States increasingly focus on reducing the environmental impact of their waste streams (and as environmental impact regulations increase), it is vital to understand the difference between disposing of sharps, chemotherapy and pharmaceutical waste in ‘reusable’ containers, and disposing of them in ‘disposable’ or ‘recyclable’ containers.

“Daniels delivers the best service…”

We switched to Daniels from Stericycle last year. The quality of service is better than previous suppliers, and the containers are safer for the staff to use. It’s nice to have a rep that we can communicate with and get timely help from; a lot of companies don’t have reps that will come on site and work through issues. As far as we’ve seen in the industry, Daniels is the best service at the most affordable price.

“Partnership in Sustainability…”

Here at Centegra we are all about our future footprint concerning our environmental waste, this is where Daniels Health and Centegra become a very good match. Centegra’s working relationship with Daniels has been very professional throughout the years. One of the outstanding points that comes to mind is the reliability that Daniels has proven time and time again.

“Daniels is just wonderful!…”

We are a free clinic with no means of support except for grants and donations, and therefore depend on fairly priced services for the clinic. Daniels is just wonderful!. The key points are dependability, professionalism and affordable pricing. The driver does a great job, personable and helpful and the entire program is really low maintenance. I am happy to recommend Daniels because of all they provide for us

“Why I Rely on Daniels”

Daniels drivers are extremely courteous, and it is obvious they are trained and knowledgeable in their field. All Daniels Health representatives that we have had the pleasure of working with are knowledgeable and have been of great help to us.

“Fewer Interruptions…”

With Daniels’ larger containers we have fewer pick-ups which means fewer interruptions for our support staff in the ORs. With hazardous waste, it’s important to have a provider that’s compliant with DOH policies. Daniels demonstrate this through their safe containers and staff education initiatives (BBP training, in-services, OSHA guidance, etc). Daniels is the best service at the most affordable price.
