Daniels Accessories: A Container’s Sidekick

A hero is only as strong as their team. While Daniels Health containers are the heroes of safe waste management, their accessories are the essential sidekicks that make them an unstoppable force. Together, they form a successful team, just like Batman and Robin, ensuring healthcare facilities run seamlessly.

Our accessories are designed to streamline operations and enhance safety for hospitals and patients. We’re shining a light on these crucial sidekicks, showing how Daniels Health accessories empower healthcare workers and embody our mission to make healthcare safer.


WHAT WE WILL COVER:


Point-of Generation Disposal

Imagine a busy hospital room. It’s often a tight space, and when you add medical waste bins to the mix, it can feel even more crowded. Doctors, nurses and other staff often must navigate aroundDaniels Health Accessories Deep Dive 03 containers, which can create tripping hazards and slow down critical moments.

But what if you could keep sharps and other waste containers secure and out of the way while keeping them easily accessible?

Daniels offers a range of accessories that do just that, creating a more efficient, compliant and safe environment for both patients and staff.

Space-Saving Solutions

Proper container placement is critical for safety, efficiency and compliance. We know that leaving sharps containers on the floor, even during a routine check-up, is a serious tripping and spilling hazard. The CDC also requires medical waste to be stored off the floor, making our accessories compliant.

Our wall brackets and floor stands are designed to keep containers off the ground and securely in place.

Wall Brackets: Allow for strategic placement, ensuring containers are always at the right height and location for convenient and safe disposal at the point of waste generation. They also feature a locking mechanism so containers are securely mounted and can only be removed by authorized staff, protecting both patients and staff.

Floor Stands: For situations where wall-mounting isn’t an option, our floor stands keep containers upright and stable. We even offer a hands-free version with a foot pedal to reduce the risk of infection by enabling hands-free disposal.

The Power of Mobility

In a fast-paced environment, medical waste containers need to be as mobile as the staff using them.

Our Cartsmart and Accessmart trolleys are designed for easy, on-the-go disposal. These mobile carts allow healthcare workers to dispose of waste the moment it’s created, which is crucial for preventing sharps injuries and spills particularly in areas with multiple patient beds.

A container might be stored in the corner of the room. When a nurse needs it, they can simply wheel it over to the bed using the Cartsmart or Acessmart. So, they can immediately dispose of the waste after a variety of procedures.

A key challenge with mobile waste management is segregation. Our trolleys and cradle accessories work together to solve this problem by enabling co-mounting of different containers.

For example, a cradle can mount a Pharmasmart and a Sharpsmart container directly onto a trolley, allowing nurses to safely dispose of pharmaceutical and sharps waste simultaneously, minimizing risk and maximizing efficiency.

All of Daniels’ mobile carts and floor stands are engineered with a unique dovetail design that interlocks with the rear of each container. This creates a stable and secure fit, allowing you to easily switch between different accessories and work environments as needed.

By keeping medical waste containers off the floor and in the right place, we help you manage infection control risk and create a safer, more organized workspace.


Efficient Internal Movement

Picture an EVS professional carrying heavy containers one at a time. It is slow, physically draining and puts workers at risk of injury.Daniels Health Accessories Deep Dive 04

Now imagine that same worker pushing a cart loaded with up to 16 containers of any type or size. That is the difference Daniels Internal Delivery Carts make. By taking the weight off staff, our carts remove the need for lifting and carrying, keeping EVS teams safe and hospital operations running smoothly.

Designed for busy healthcare settings, the carts allow staff to transport sharps, pharmaceutical and medical waste containers all at once. This means fewer trips through patient areas or shared elevators, which helps keep hallways clear and reduces interruptions to patient care.

Our movement accessories are built with both safety and efficiency in mind. Rubber-coated hooks lock containers securely in place, while buffers and braking casters ensure quiet, smooth transport. Whether moving clean or full containers from the loading dock to utility rooms, the carts make the job faster, safer and less disruptive.


Strategic Storage

The proper placement of medical waste containers is crucial for an organized and efficient workspace. Our Wallsmart tackles this by freeing up valuable floor space and creating a more streamlined environment. It can also be used for storing extra clean containers, ensuring a ready supply is always on hand without cluttering back-of-house area.Daniels Health Accessories Deep Dive 05

By containing modular panels that can be arranged to fit any space, whether it’s a tight hallway or a large storage room. You can mount various container sizes and types side-by-side, giving staff easy access to the right waste stream exactly where they need it.

The Wallsmart provides:

  • More Space: Frees up floorspace and optimizes available wall space.
  • Zero Spills: Containers are held firmly in an upright position, preventing spills and leaks.
  • Contamination Control: In-built pegs keep containers off the ground, reducing the risk of contamination.
  • Total Stability: Designed with hooks that fit securely into the container’s under-lid, ensuring they can’t be easily knocked over or removed.
  • Saves Time: Creates simplified transition from dirty to clean containers resulting in reduced multi-handling container movements.

In addition, our Transporters help efficiently transport a range of sharps containers between Daniels’ processing sites and the healthcare facilities. Transporters are designed to make container movement seamless while keeping medical waste and sharps containers secure, dust-free and protected from scuffing.

With their mobility and multi-stacking capabilities, they efficiently streamline the entire process of waste management offsite transport.
