Asking yourself, “Where is sharps disposal near me?” Ask no more!

We started with a vision that a safer sharps container could deliver significant reductions in healthcare worker exposure to needlestick injuries and improve overall healthcare waste management. We are as passionate now about safety as we were over 30 years ago when we began. Today the Daniels Sharpsmart sharps container is globally recognized as the safest sharps container in the world, boasting the greatest reduction of needlstick injuries ever recorded in modern literature. Backed by multiple peer review studies, and countless case studies from our healthcare partners, the Sharpsmart sharps container is quite simply the only sharps container in the world designed with adequate safety features to protect healthcare workers from container-associated sharps injuries.

Sharps waste management is not just about a sharps container, it’s about a total solution

While we have the best sharps container in the world… we didn’t stop there. Supporting Daniels sharps containers is a robotic washing system that processes every container after use and achieves a 106 log reduction in bacterial load, together with a suite of mounting, movement and location accessories that ensure containers can be seamlessly moved without risk to healthcare staff, and utilized at the point of patient care thereby minimizing risk in sharps disposal. Learn more about our robotic washing processes in our blog! Daniels Health is licensed to handle the collection, transport and destruction of sharps across the US, and our operational staff are supported by a compliance team who manage all state and federal regulations that pertain to the management of sharps waste. As a company, Daniels Health are positioned and committed to providing the safest, most environmentally responsible, and most efficient healthcare waste management solutions in the United States.

The safest and most environmentally responsible sharps management system

  • SPACE OPTIMIZATION

    Daniels mounting and movement accessories are engineered to optimize space, overcome logistical challenges, provide bulk movement and storage of sharps collectors, and enable point-of-use disposal without the collectors ever touching the ground.

Summary of the risks associated with managing Sharps Waste

OHS threats for staff

  • Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) estimates that 62-88% of all sharps injuries can be prevented by the use of safer medical devices.
  • Sharps can be contaminated with differed micro-organisms and can be contaminated with blood borne viruses such as Human Immunodeficiency Viruses (HIV) and Hepatitis B and C.
  • Sharps can cause injury through cuts and puncture wounds
  • Sharps pose a risk of infection or injury if they penetrate the skin

Non-compliance with regulations

  • Fears of HIV and other infections have led many healthcare workers to pursue legal action for compensation for a disease acquired at work.
  • Even in cases where diseases have not been transmitted, healthcare workers are successfully suing for compensation for the emotional distress experienced while waiting for test results.

Cost Overruns

  • Each sharps injury costs on average in 2022 $4,352.
  • One study found the cost to an average hospital of sharps injuries was $25,000 per year.
  • According to the American Hospital Association, one case of serious infection by bloodborne pathogens can soon add up to $1,000,000 or more in expenditures for treatment, testing, lost time, and disability payments.
