[Histonet] Stericycle question from histonet

[Carol G Fields]

Hi,
No you just put all your containers in the barrel...sit them in there.  They decant the formalin at the company and incinerate the tissue.
I've used them at several hospitals.  It saves so much time and safety to your employee.  Add it all up and see if you break even or maybe ahead.  Call them and get a quote.
Good luck,
Carole

I have question about your process with Stericycle. Do you put the specimen container and all into or is staff emptying the containers into the barrel?


Cordially,
