6.2 DEFINITIONS:

ARCHIVE: Archive contains documents that have accumulated over the course of an individual

Or organization lifetime and are kept to show the function of that person and organization.

DISPOSAL: Disposal is an important part of records management. Properly done, it ensures that

the organization retains records for as long as they are needed and then when they are no longer

needed, destroys them in an appropriate manner, or disposes of them in some other way, e.g. by

transfer to an archives service.

7.0 PROCEDURE

7.1 Pour the test sample into a sealable plastic bag. If the sample is a solid ( Tables, Powder, Oil Liquid, etc.) add water to dissolve it.

7.2 Add kitty litter, sawdust, and coffee grounds (or any material that mixes with the medication and makes it less appealing for pets and children to eat) to the plastic bag.

7.3 Seal the plastic bag and put it in the trash.

7.4 Remove and destroy all identifying personal information from medication containers before recycling them or throwing them away.

7.5 Destruction of paper records can be carried out in a variety of ways, including shredding, pulping, and burning.

7.6 Records should be destroyed with the level of security required by the confidentiality of their contents. For example, if records containing sensitive personal data or protectively marked papers have been shredded, the shredded paper should be handled securely, not dumped.

7.7 Records awaiting destruction should be stored securely.

7.8 With digital records it is important to remember that deletion from a server may not be sufficient. The records may no longer be visible but they are not beyond any possibility of recovery. More extreme measures may be needed to achieve full destruction, e.g. overwriting with random digital code enough times to eliminate the data.

7.9 Place carcass and/or tissue into a yellow colored plastic bag and give to Biowaste disposal

for incineration.

8.0 PRECAUTIONS
