Medical Systems is supportive of our military and all that they do to protect our freedom. We are honored to be able to offer our services to the military. In addition to the 37 military hospitals in the United States, there are 373 military medical clinics, 248 dental clinics and over 700 military veterinarians. Combine this with the VA health system with over 170 Medical Centers and over 1,000 outpatient care sites and you have the world’s largest health system. Not only do all these sites require Medical Waste and Hazardous Waste services, but they also have complex Controlled Substance Waste and Chemotherapy Waste challenges.

  • Consultative approach: Medical Systems will work with any military or VA team to determine the waste streams your care location is generating and the most cost effective, environmentally friendly, and regulatory compliant way to address them. 
  • Reusable Sharps Containers: Medical Systems’ reusable sharps containers have been proven to reduce needlesticks by as much as 30%. Not all reusable sharps containers are created equal. Make sure the containers you use will not only meet your internal needs but are designed with safety and environmental impact in mind. Unlike most reusable sharps container programs Medical Systems’ program is available to all military hospitals, VA hospitals and all clinics within the markets we service. Learn More…
  • Regulated Medical Waste or Red Bag waste: The EPA defines regulated medical waste as “healthcare waste that may be contaminated by blood, body fluids or other potentially infectious materials”.   Medical Systems’ Regulated Medical Waste disposal program is designed to offer a wide variety of container sizes and service schedules to meet each facility’s needs. We will work with your staff to make sure what should and what should not be considered Regulated Medical Waste, to reduce over classification and increased cost. Learn More…
  • Pharmaceutical Waste: Determining whether your hospital should comingle or separate non-hazardous, P, U and D listed hazardous pharmaceuticals can greatly impact the generator designation for many hospitals. Medical systems will work with your pharmacist and our pharmacy consultant to determine the impact of all options. We will then provide the proper containers and signage at all locations that will assist staff in proper pharmaceutical waste segregation. Learn More…
  • Chemotherapy Waste: Medical Systems handles both Trace and bulk Chemotherapy waste but determining the most cost-effective facility, staff, and patient friendly way to manage these waste streams requires understanding the options available. We will work with your team to review each option and determine the right fit for your hospital. Learn More…
  • Compliance Training: Making sure your staff members receive the proper, OSHA, HIPPA, DOT and Bloodborne Pathogen training is critical to your organization remaining compliant. Medical Systems’ compliance training is designed to make staying up to date with current regulations as simple as possible. We will work with you to determine what staff members need what training and then set up a system to make sure initial and reoccurring training is completed by each member of your organization.
