Start by asking each Wheeling company what West Virginia requires of a medical waste hauler; WV Department of Health, Office of Environmental Health Services can tell you what applies. Then compare where the waste is treated, whether you receive records for every pickup, how pickups are scheduled, and what the contract says about its length and about price increases.

In Wheeling, that means hospitals, nursing homes, dialysis and surgery centers, clinics and private practices alike. Public records show 1 hospital, 3 nursing homes, 1 dialysis center and 1 health center site. The provider registry lists 37 physician offices with a lab certificate, 45 dentists and 16 pharmacies.

Medical waste from a Wheeling practice goes to a company set up to collect and treat it, not into the dumpster or to a drop-off site. West Virginia regulates it as infectious medical waste. Waste from home use, such as personal sharps, follows separate household rules in Marshall and Ohio counties.

West Virginia regulates medical waste as infectious medical waste. The main rules are cited as 64CSR56, §§3.10, 2.2; W. Va. Code § 20-5J-3. WV Department of Health, Office of Environmental Health Services is one of the agencies that oversees them. Federal OSHA oversees workplace safety for private employers in West Virginia. Requirements can differ by waste type and by county or city, so confirm what applies to your Wheeling facility.

A Wheeling practice should not. Contaminated needles and blades belong in puncture-resistant, leakproof, labeled or color-coded sharps containers under OSHA’s bloodborne pathogens standard, and the full containers are collected for treatment. Sharps from home use are handled differently, so check your local household rules in Marshall and Ohio counties.

Yes, we offer both online with certification. OSHA requires employers whose staff may be exposed to blood or other infectious material to train them at hire and at least yearly, and HIPAA requires covered practices to train their workforce on patient privacy.
