Tampa, Florida is the largest city in what is called the Tampa-St. Pete metropolitan area. With a population over 2.8 million people in the region, the healthcare industry is massive and is anchored by Tampa General Hospital and Bayfront Medical Center. The University of South Florida has a very positive influence on the region with a reputation for training excellent physicians and conducting critical medical research.

Hospitals, clinics, medical labs, and doctor’s offices have many things in common, and one is medical waste. Also called biomedical or biohazardous waste, this is not your average garbage. Medical waste includes needles, bandages, tubing, and other items that have contacted bodily fluids or tissues and therefore have the ability to transfer diseases. Everyone remembers the recent incidents in the news where people were infected with Ebola after needle sticks. Because of this medical waste disposal Tampa, Florida is a necessary safety precaution.

The State of Florida regulates the handling and transportation of medical waste through their Departments of Health and Environmental Regulation. There are no compromises permitted when dealing with safety regulations, they must be followed for everyone’s health and safety.

There are thousands of facilities in Florida generating biomedical waste. These include hospitals, clinics, nursing homes, laboratories, funeral homes, dentists, veterinarians, physicians, and others. The most important priorities are to protect health care workers, environmental-service staff, waste haulers, and the general public from risks associated with potentially infectious biomedical waste.
