Stericycle provides veterinary clinics and hospitals with an array of safe and compliant solutions to manage medical waste and compliance requirements.
Stericycle enables veterinary practices to maintain regulatory compliance by providing medical waste management and compliance solutions that protect people and brands, promote health and well-being, and safeguard the environment.
Veterinary clinics and animal hospitals provide a variety of services aimed at promoting the health and well-being of pets, such as routine care and treatment, surgeries, and emergency care, while also maintaining the safety of employees, pets, and owners.
At Stericycle, we appreciate how important your role is in providing care for pets whether you are a veterinarian, a veterinary technician, or an office manager. We also understand the effort it takes to handle the different medical waste streams, while maintaining an environment where your employees and practice are up-to-date with regulatory requirements.
We customize solutions for your needs whether you are a local veterinary clinic providing pets with wellness exams centered on preventative care and regular checkups, or an animal hospital diagnosing and treating specialized medical conditions and providing emergency care.
