Healthcare & Pharmaceutical Waste Services
"A simple and compliant waste management program specifically designed for the healthcare industry..."
The dizzying variety of medicines, supplements, and delivery systems can pose a distinct challenge for the typical healthcare provider. as many hospital systems know, the sheer number of generation locations and volume of medical staff involved can make proper materials handling difficult. On the opposite side of the spectrum, small pharmacies, physician offices, and clinics cannot staff an environmental professional to examine the components of their drug stocks.
As regulations change and the impacts from pharmaceuticals in the environment grows, healthcare organizations are increasingly aware of their need for a compliant pharmaceutical waste management program. PSC environmental services provides a comprehensive approach to healthcare waste solutions. Based on your needs, we offer pharmaceutical waste programs, RCRA hazardous, state-regulated, and non-regulated waste management services, supplies, and training.
