USP 800 - Disposal and Medical Surveillance

Hello Colleagues,

We're a little behind in getting USP<800> to lift-off. We are struggling in some areas more than others in getting this over the finish line.

That would be an education plan for disposal and what to do about medical surveillance ( a recommendation but we still wanted to do "something on some level).

If anyone is willing to share their USP <800> Policy, that would be great!

Stericycle is our primary company for disposal but they don't handle our Chemo.

Thanks, n advance.
