Common Questions About Needle Disposal in Ohio City

What if I find needles in a vacant building?

Do not go in to look. Report it to the owner, the local health department or a cleanup team. A team can sweep the whole building in protective gear, remove the sharps and give the owner a record of the work.

What should I do if someone is stuck by a needle?

Wash the area with soap and water and get medical care right away. Call 911 in an emergency, or Poison Control with exposure questions. Tell the doctor what happened and where the needle was found, if you know. Do not wait to see whether symptoms appear.

Is this medical advice?

No. This page explains how needle and sharps cleanup works. It is not medical, legal or insurance advice. For exposure or symptoms, contact a doctor or Poison Control, and for local programs ask the health department.

Are children at risk from found needles?

Yes, because children may pick up what they find. Teach children to stay back from any needle and tell an adult. If a child touches or is stuck by a needle, wash the area, get medical care and call Poison Control.

Do I need to be on site?

In many cases the person who calls does not need to be at the property. Ask the team how access and keys can be arranged. Many teams can also arrive in an unmarked vehicle, so ask about that if privacy matters to you.

Can I get a disease from a needle stick?

A used needle can carry bloodborne pathogens such as hepatitis B, hepatitis C and HIV. The chance of infection from one stick depends on many things, and a doctor can explain what applies. Get medical care promptly after any stick or cut.
