With over 30 years of clinical experience serving university hospitals, laboratories and medical research facilities, Daniels Health is focused on delivering solutions that make sense from all standpoints of safety, sustainability, cost effectiveness and efficiency. We’re the first to admit that there are no two facilities alike; varying medical waste streams, waste volumes, segregation imperatives and limitations of space and movement – we get that “off the shelf” just simply does not work.

With a range of engineered containment systems that have been developed in partnership with healthcare professionals to achieve optimum safety, indestructability, liquid containment and movement efficiency, and a comprehensive national service model that enables customised solutions for each facility we work with… we don’t just deliver a medical waste service, we deliver a partnership that radically optimises the safety, labour and cost efficiencies and green ratings of your facility.

Let us show you what we’re capable of…

Why Reusable Sharps containers are better for the environment

As healthcare facilities across Canada increasingly focus on reducing the environmental impact of their waste streams (and as environmental impact regulations increase), it is vital to understand the difference between disposing of sharps, cytotoxic and pharmaceutical waste in ‘reusable’ containers, and disposing of them in ‘disposable’ or ‘recyclable’ containers.

Cradle to Grave Waste Management

Our Drivers, Our Trucks, Our Treatment. Our Responsibility

Unlike other waste management service providers, we protect the process from generation to disposal, assuming full responsibility for the security of your waste. As the waste generator is responsible for waste produced UNTIL such time as it is disposed of, having a medical waste partner that assumes full responsibility of the biomedical waste pickup, transport, treatment and disposal is critical. To ensure your risk is minimised, it is our drivers, our trucks and our processing facilities that manage your waste – no third parties involved!

“Sharpsmart unrivalled for safety…”

You have discovered a great engineering safety device that is in the process of sweeping the nation.

Mike Smucker, Environmental Services

Kishwaukee Community Hospital, USA

“I would recommend Daniels…”

We had used a local competitor for many years before switching to Daniels, our only regret is that we did not change sooner. I would recommend them to any medical facility looking for biomedical waste removal.

Mackenzie Friend HT ASCP, Safety Officer

Mid America Pathology Laboratory

“Partnership in Sustainability…”

Here at Centegra we are all about our future footprint concerning our environmental waste, this is where Daniels Health and Centegra become a very good match. Centegra’s working relationship with Daniels has been very professional throughout the years. One of the outstanding points that comes to mind is the reliability that Daniels has proven time and time again.

Tammie Johnson, Cumberland Medical Center

Crossville, Tennessee

“Always there to help…”

We’ve had a contract with Daniels Health for the past 9 years. We had issues with pharmaceutical waste and contacted Daniels to put the RX reusable pharmaceutical waste program in place, since then we are legally doing the right thing. If we have questions or concerns, Daniels is always there to try to help in any way they can. Thank you Daniels for your support and services!

Roger Charest, Environmental Services Manager

Vitalite Healthcare

“I am impressed…”

I have had the opportunity to tour Daniels’ recycling facility and am satisfied that sharps are handled appropriately at Daniels’ sites; the containers provided to us have been in virtually “like new” condition. I am especially impressed by the support we have received from the company both during the trial and afterward.
