Sharps - Action for GP Surgeries

Date published: 11/01/2019

We ask that you cease accepting sharps of any kind from patients with immediate effect and refer the patient to their Local Authority to meet statutory obligations.

This will ultimately mean NHS England should see a significant reduction in the number of 0.6 and 1 litre containers being collected.

For further information please contact Anenta Ltd by calling 03301 222 143 or if you have an Anenta account, via www.vector.anenta.com .

For GP sites managed by KMPT, please call 0300 303 3209 or email kmpt.estatesandfacilitieshelpdesk@nhs.net
