Our Clinical Approach

With solutions designed to minimize infection risk, reduce patient interruptions, and align the safety and sustainability goals of Canadian healthcare, we take a very different clinical approach to healthcare waste management.

We start with you.

No two healthcare facilities are the same, but all share a fundamental objective – to deliver the best patient outcome possible through a safe clinical approach that is environmentally friendly. This is where we start… Challenges that have been commonly associated with healthcare waste management include:

1

Poor Waste Segregation

Poor waste segregation attributed to inflated costs

2

Poor Hygiene

Hand hygiene and pathogen transfer risk with dirty hand-operated containers

3

Increasing Safety Risks

Containers without safety mechanisms give rise to increased needlestick injuries and occupational hazards

4

High Landfill & CO2 Output

Landfill and CO2 emission burden of excess disposable plastic in sharps and clinical waste streams

5

Space & Storage Restrictions

Space and storage restrictions encourage poor container placement and pose an occupational risk within the facility and the hospital’s loading dock

6

Lack of Traceability

Lack of disposal and waste tracking visibility leading to unmeasured cost inflations and compliance risks

At Daniels, we have combatted all of these challenges through a partnership approach that doesn’t “turn up at the loading dock” but works clinically within the four walls of your healthcare facility.

We have identified five areas of need that are the cornerstone of a successful clinical waste management partnership, these are safety, sustainability, efficiency, education, and compliance. All of our services are focused on how we drive successful outcomes in all of these five areas.

We want to know your challenges

You may be surprised by some of the questions we ask, it’s not “how much waste volume do we need to pick up” or “how big is your loading dock”. The first questions are what your goals are and how we partner to serve them.

We have skin in the game from the start

When we shake hands, it’s a partnership, and all of us, from our sales staff to clinical educators and operational logistics, hold ourselves accountable for driving successful KPIs and site-based outcomes for your facility.

Drive change where the action is

Change doesn’t happen in an office over a negotiating table, it’s in the clinical environment when we walk the wards, talk to clinicians, and understand real factors that drive cost increases and occupational risks.

Safety & Sustainability are key

Daniels’ Sharpsmart is the only sharps container peer-reviewed in the world’s leading medical journals, and we have been internationally recognized for our CO2 emissions reductions in North American healthcare facilities.

Clinical outcomes are at the core of everything we do.

It’s Time We Talked.

No matter how big or small your facility is, we’re positive that we can deliver services that drive substantial cost, environmental, and waste volume reductions whilst keeping your staff safe and educated.
