MEDICAL AND GENERAL WASTE
Medical waste generated in patient areas is
bagged and transported to soiled utility
rooms. General waste is also stored in utility
rooms. Medical waste is usually put in red
bags to keep it separate from general waste.
Medical waste goes to special waste handling
facilities while general waste requires no
special facilities for disposal.
