Biomedical Waste

To minimize risks from improper disposal of home-generated biomedical waste, such as needles, syringes with needles, diagnostic lancets, Florida Department of Health in Putnam County has implemented a program that provides accessible and affordable methods to dispose of this type of waste in a safe manner. This program provides a site where residents can drop off a container filled with needles and purchase a new container at minimal cost.
