Medical Waste Disposal Salt Lake City, UT

Nicknamed “The Crossroads of the West”, Salt Lake City is the capital of Utah. Founded by Brigham Young, Isaac Morley, and the help of George Washington Bradley, the city was officially Salt Lake City in 1847. As a combined effort, along with the help of other Mormon followers, Salt Lake City’s arid valley was irrigated. Originally the city was called “Great Salt Lake City”, however, the “great” was dropped from the city name in 1868.

Historically, the city was known as a holy city, due to the headquarters of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints residing there. Initially there was a gigantic economic boom, due to the large groups of LDS members filtering in, the mining plethora, and the initial construction of the railway system. In combination with the railway, the first highway was built in 1913, which today is known as I-15 and I-80. These two major freeways intersect the city. Since these times, the great Salt Lake City has been known for its plethora of outdoor activity. In 2002, The Winter Olympics were hosted here. Skiing is one of its main attractions.

With the nickname, “Crossroads of the West”, the steel industry, mining, and railroad operations serve as a strong foundation for the economic stability of Salt Lake City. Companies like Silver King Coalition Mines and Geneva Steel are huge benefactors to Salt Lake City’s success. Much of the city’s daytime population is business-oriented. The population during the day swells to upwards of 315,000 people.

Salt Lake City is known for its vast tourism and sightseeing. The most popular just may be Temple Square. Although this square includes the Salt Lake Temple, which is not open to public viewing, there are visitor centers that are. Home to the world-known Mormon Tabernacle Choir, the Tabernacle is one of the most historic sectors of Temple Square.

In addition to Temple Square, Salt Lake is known for hosting the Winter Olympics back in 2002. The Olympic Cauldron Park has quite a few sights to see on its own. The Gateway District features a dancing fountain set that goes to music and presents the names of 30,000 Olympic volunteers carved in stone. From The Gateway District to Utah Olympic Park, you will find the Olympic ski jumps and bobsleigh runs. Today the park is used as training grounds annually, and also hosts competitions. Not many people have had the chance to ride a bobsled, however, Olympic Cauldron Park can make that dream a reality. From the visitor’s center, to the Hoberman Arch, this side of town is one to take a stroll through.

Many are uneducated on how exactly medical waste is handled and disposed of. The beginning of the process starts with sorting the waste. Sterilization, compaction, and disposal or recycling follows step after step. This process only is possible with the use of incineration and autoclaves. The autoclaves use is simply to force all air out of each unit, followed by the intense steaming from the incinerator. This intense heat kills off all bacteria. Finally, the items can either be recycled back into use or disposed of.

Salt Lake City residents and healthcare officials can put their trust in MedPro Disposal. It is highly understood that many facilities have an annual spend far greater than they would like.

How do I choose a medical waste company in Salt Lake City, UT?

Compare Salt Lake City companies on the same points: whether they meet the requirements Utah sets for hauling medical waste, where the waste is treated, the records you receive after each pickup, the pickup schedule, and the contract’s length and price-change terms. Utah DEQ, Division of Waste Management and Radiation Control is a good place to confirm the state’s requirements.

Which Salt Lake City facilities need medical waste disposal?

Any Salt Lake City facility that treats patients or handles blood, sharps or pharmaceuticals does. In federal Medicare and HRSA records, Salt Lake City has 8 hospitals, 16 nursing homes, 3 dialysis centers, 7 surgery centers and 5 health center sites. The national provider registry also lists 88 physician offices with a lab certificate, 432 dentists and 134 pharmacies. Private practices, dental offices, veterinary clinics and laboratories generate it too, though not all of them appear in those records.

There is no single rate for Salt Lake City: price follows your waste volume, container sizes, pickup schedule and building access. MedPro customers save an average of 30% over their previous hauler. Ask for a free, no-obligation quote based on your own facility.

Where can I dispose of medical waste in Salt Lake City?

Medical waste from a Salt Lake City practice goes to a company set up to collect and treat it, not into the dumpster or to a drop-off site. Utah regulates it as infectious waste. Waste from home use, such as personal sharps, follows separate household rules.

What are the medical waste rules in Utah?

Utah classifies medical waste as infectious waste (Utah Code 19-6-102(10), (12); R315-301-2(71); DEQ Infectious Waste Management Guidance). Utah DEQ, Division of Waste Management and Radiation Control is one of the agencies that enforces the rules. Utah Occupational Safety and Health (UOSH) oversees workplace safety rules in Utah. Your Salt Lake City facility may also have county or city requirements to confirm.

Can I throw sharps in the regular trash in Salt Lake City?

Not from a healthcare facility. OSHA’s bloodborne pathogens standard requires contaminated sharps to go into closable, puncture-resistant, leakproof, labeled or color-coded containers, which are then collected for treatment. Household sharps follow local rules, so check Utah’s household sharps guidance.

Does MedPro Disposal offer OSHA and HIPAA training in Salt Lake City?

Yes. MedPro Disposal offers online OSHA bloodborne pathogens and HIPAA training with certification, so a Salt Lake City practice can handle its training and its waste pickup with one provider. OSHA requires bloodborne pathogens training at hire and at least once a year for staff with exposure risk.
