Hospitals generate approximately 25 to 30 pounds of wasteper bed per day. By capturing data on the types and amountsof material, facilities can take steps to reduce toxicity, volume,and associated costs. Waste is an out come of inefficiency,and, through close scrutiny of mat erials and wastes, facilitiescapture the data to make changes in purchasing, use, andmanagement of materials and equipment. By addingenvironmentally preferable criteria, hospitals are able todocument outcomes from toxicity and volume reduction, costsavings, and improved health and safety.
