Healthcare waste management involves the safe segregation, collection, storage, transportation, treatment and disposal of waste generated in hospitals, clinics, laboratories, blood banks, nursing homes, vaccination centres and other healthcare facilities. Improper management of healthcare waste can cause accidents that affect healthcare workers, patients, waste handlers, visitors, the public and the environment. These accidents may be classified broadly as major and minor accidents according to their severity, the extent of injury, the quantity and type of waste involved, and the potential for infection or environmental contamination. Major accidents are those that cause serious injury, exposure to dangerous infectious material, poisoning, fire, explosions, significant environmental contamination or multiple casualties. One of the most important major accidents in healthcare waste management is a serious needle-stick or sharps injury. Used needles, scalpels, blades, broken glass and other sharp objects may transmit blood-borne infections when they are improperly discarded. A waste handler may accidentally pick up an exposed needle while collecting waste, or a healthcare worker may be injured while attempting to recap or dispose of a needle. Such injuries can result in exposure to pathogens such as hepatitis B virus, hepatitis C virus and HIV. Another major accident is the accidental spillage or leakage of highly infectious healthcare waste. Waste contaminated with blood, body fluids, tissues, laboratory cultures or other infectious materials can spread microorganisms when containers are damaged, overloaded or improperly closed.
