COVID19 Response
Waste contaminated with bodily fluids or other infectious materials is becoming a bigger concern for hospitals as they brace for a surge in patients sick with COVID-19 in the US. Patients and health care workers are quickly going through medical supplies and disposable personal protective equipment, like masks. Eventually all that used gear piles up as medical waste that needs to be safely discarded. Biohazardous medical waste is highly regulated by the ADEQ for EPA standards. Tracking forms are issued for all medical waste handeled, proof of compliance.
