Riverside Healthcare is implementing a new pharmaceutical/infectious waste and sharps management program.  We are changing vendors from Daniels to Stericycle for increased safety, environmental benefits, and financial value.  They will take care of our non-hazardous infectious waste, RCRA hazardous waste, controlled substance waste, and sharps waste.  Starting July 20, you may see Stericycle staff in your location changing out sharps and waste containers.  They will also have people rounding to train staff on any changes, to make the transition as seamless as possible.  They will be starting at the hospital campus and oncology locations before moving to other areas. 

Look for posters and training in Olie to come!
