A safe, structured needle sweep process
Each attendance is different, but our approach is built around identifying hazards, isolating the risk, removing sharps safely and leaving the area in a better state for access and ongoing management.
We discuss the concern, likely locations, access issues, vulnerable people and whether the issue involves a single needle or a wider sweep area.
We inspect identified or likely zones and determine the safest sweep path, visibility limitations and whether extra control measures are needed.
Located needles, syringes and sharps are collected using appropriate tools and handling practices to reduce puncture risk.
Where required, we continue through gardens, perimeters, laneways, drains, bins, scrub, undergrowth and hidden corners.
Collected sharps are placed into secure approved containment and removed for disposal under the relevant process.
We explain what was found, what was actioned and any practical recommendations for keeping the site safer going forward.
