Diabetic Needle Disposal Safety
Each year, thousands of accidental needle sticks from discarded syringes occur. Many accidental needlesticks occur through improper 'pre-disposal' handling and transport of diabetic needles by the patients themselves or their relatives, friends or their children. But an increasing number of accidents occur during waste transport and treatment as well as at recycling facilities and landfills. For these 'downstream' victims, each accidental needlestick causes not only a puncture wound but also the fear of possible secondary infection.
