PHS Wastemanagement helps optometrists comply with new Waste Guidance

04.09.09

PHS Wastemanagement's range of pharmaceutical and clinical waste collection and disposal services can help optometrists comply with the new Waste Disposal Guidance issued by the College of Optometrists.

Primarily aimed at community optometrists, this Guidance is designed to ensure that all optometrists are fully aware of their ‘Duty of Care’ and are operating in line with Best Practice Guidelines. One key aspect of the Guidance is ensuring that any out of date or used medicines are disposed of appropriately. Any pharmaceutical waste must legally be disposed of by incineration and it is therefore vital that this waste is segregated, stored and disposed of accordingly.


As the UK’s leading provider of specialist pharmaceutical waste collection and disposal services, PHS Wastemanagement is able to offer a service tailored to meet the needs of optometrists. Our range of clearly identifiable containers is available in sizes from 5 litre to 50 litres and our ability to offer collections at a frequency to suit your needs ensure that we provide the most convenenient and cost-effective solution.
