On-Demand Webinar: Hazardous Drugs: Managing Them from Cradle to Grave

[#1]

This webinar focused on the lifecycle of hazardous drugs as they are stored, handled, compounded and properly disposed of in a manner that protects personnel and the environment. Eric S. Kastango and Charlotte Smith explained the difference between OSHA hazardous drugs and EPA hazardous waste and addressed how current disposal practices may put organizations at risk. Find out how common hazardous drug disposal practices have been violating federal law for 30 years and why the EPA is finally taking action.
