Using the Medical Waste Disposal Log
To download the free template, all you need to do is click the link at the bottom of this page.
Now, fill out all the blank lines at the top of the page. You will enter the container #, the room #, and the building of that applies to you.
You may then proceed to the main table of the document. Here, you will list the date, the added by, position, department, waste description, and finally the container type.
Now, let’s run through an example to get started.
Let’s say that you are a doctor at a small clinic and you need to log a needle that has been used to take a simple blood sample. You would enter the date you took the blood and threw the item away. You would then list your name and position, your department, and a brief description of the item.
Finally, you can finish by entering the name of the container, which in this case would be “syringe”.
You can also fill out this information by printing the document first and writing it in by hand. Simply click the “File” button above and click the “Print” option that appears on the list.
