Frequently Asked Questions
Most urgent care centers require weekly or twice-weekly pickup depending on patient volume. Sharps containers should be exchanged when ¾ full. During flu season or other high-volume periods, Exodus can increase pickup frequency to match demand. Containers should never be overfilled.
Overfilled sharps containers are a direct FDOH violation under Chapter 64E-16. Inspectors can issue citations, require immediate corrective action, and in serious cases suspend your operating certificate. Properly scheduled pickup from Exodus prevents this risk entirely.
Yes. Urgent care centers managing medication samples, IV drugs, and — in some states/jurisdictions — on-site dispensaries generate pharmaceutical waste that must be segregated from medical waste. P-listed RCRA drugs require RCRA hazardous waste disposal; non-hazardous drugs need pharmaceutical waste disposal. Exodus handles both.
OSHA's Bloodborne Pathogen Standard (29 CFR 1910.1030) requires urgent care employers to provide puncture-resistant sharps containers, require sharps disposal immediately after use, provide annual BBP training, and document the program in an Exposure Control Plan. Exodus provides containers and training documentation supporting OSHA compliance.
Yes — and this is strongly recommended. Using Exodus as a single vendor for all three streams simplifies compliance management, ensures consistent documentation, and reduces the administrative burden of managing multiple vendor relationships.
