Safety-Driven Cytotoxic Oncology Waste Disposal Services

Safe, cost-effective, clinically designed cytotoxic solutions for oncology centers - hazardous waste disposal made simple 


With safety at the forefront of its solutions, more healthcare facilities are choosing Daniels for customer-focused and cost-effective Chemotherapy Waste services. 

 

 

Given the potentially hazardous nature of trace chemotherapy waste (otherwise known as cytotoxic waste), stringent regulations govern its collection, transport and disposal. As with any hazardous waste disposal, safety comes first. Leading the way in compliance, the Daniels reusable Chemosmart solution is the first chemotherapy (cytotoxic) waste container system in the United States to eliminate the need for plastic bags and cardboard boxes. With various mounting systems designed to minimize odor expulsion and enable point-of-use accessibility at bedside or in an infusion environment, the Daniels Chemosmart chemotherapy containers ensure the protection of staff and patients in the safe disposal of all chemotherapy sharps and drug-contaminated items. This efficiency, and the elimination of disposable containers, dramatically reduces overall cost, landfill burden and environmental impact. Daniels is here to provide solutions for all your medical waste disposal needs.

Ever ask yourself, “how do I dispose of chemotherapy waste?” With over 30 years of experience in healthcare, Daniels can nationally provide the solutions, licensing and compliance expertise to protect the safety risk exposure and regulatory responsibilities of healthcare facilities in the total management of trace and bulk cytotoxic waste. The eco-friendly Daniels Washsmart process uses a fully automated robotic washline, recycling water to minimize environmental impact, and achieve an unprecedented level of cleanliness and bacterial load reduction. The clear labelling and easily identifiable design of all Daniels containers encourages better waste segregation of cytotoxic/chemotherapy waste, medications and sharps disposal, and medical waste disposal, resulting in fewer container exchanges and a safer greener planet!

"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.

FAQ's

How is bulk chemotherapy waste collected?
Bulk chemotherapy waste is classified as RCRA hazardous waste and is defined as a chemotherapy drug that has more than 3% by volume of the drug remaining. All bulk chemotherapy waste must be managed as RCRA hazardous waste and collected in a RCRA defined chemotherapy waste disposal container or bin. It is a violation of the Dangerous Waste Regulations to dispose of these pharmaceuticals in the sewer, sharps container, or a regulated medical waste container.
What is Bulk Chemotherapy Waste
The term “bulk” chemotherapy is defined as chemo waste that exceeds 3% by volume and is considered a RCRA hazardous waste. Full bags or bottles and P-listed chemotherapy drugs fall under RCRA hazardous waste regulations and must be disposed of as hazardous waste. This must be disposed of as a hazardous waste and no in a Chemosmart chemotherapy container. Bulk Chemotherapy Waste includes - Any non-empty containers of chemotherapy medicine, including IV bags, bottles and tubing. - Chemotherapy waste that is designated as RCRA hazardous waste or State-only dangerous waste. - All containers or IV bags and tubing once containing a P-Listed RCRA material, including Arsenic Trioxide. - Any materials used to clean up a chemotherapy spill.
What is Trace Chemotherapy Waste
Vials or other containers that have less than 3% of the original contents by weight, after removing as much of the chemotherapy medicine as feasible and by normal means. Trace Chemotherapy waste typically exhibits reactivity, toxicity, ignitability and corrosivity. Trace Chemotherapy Waste Includes any empty chemotherapy containers, intravenous bags/bottles and IV tubing that do not hold either a P-listed chemotherapy medicine or a State-only hazardous waste, all empty bags, drug vials/needles, containers, gloves and tubing with chemotherapy medicine remaining from use during chemotherapy infusions, and any PPE, masks, gowns and other materials use during chemotherapy infusions that are not visibly contaminated. Trace Chemotherapy Waste can be disposed of in a Chemosmart chemotherapy container.
