Ear Lavage Waste Disposal - Sink, Solidifier, or Other?

  • 1.  Ear Lavage Waste Disposal - Sink, Solidifier, or Other?

    Posted an hour ago

    How are other organizations disposing of cerumen irrigation waste in your clinic spaces? We only have 1 sink in clinic exam rooms, and that is designated as a handwashing sink by infection prevention. We also haven't had great success with solidifier options.  If others are disposing down exam room "hand washing" sinks, are you wiping out the sink with a cleanswer/wipe afterwards? Curious how others are handling this. 

    Thanks!
