SHARPS BOXES/CLINICAL WASTE DISPOSAL *IMPORTANT UPDATE FOR PATIENTS*

We regret to advise patients that we can no longer accept any sharps boxes at the Practice

Patients who need to dispose of clinical waste/sharps boxes can either contact the local council (see link below), or, in Diss itself, can take NON cytotoxic waste (yellow lid) to one of the following pharmacies:

Boots Pharmacy, 9 Market Place, Diss, Norfolk, IP22 4AG

Wellbeing Pharmacy 11 Market Place, Diss, IP22 4AB

Purple lidded sharps bins for cytotoxic waste canNOT be accepted by the Practice OR pharmacies. Instead, patients should request collection direct by the district council.https://www.gov.uk/request-clinical-waste-collection

Please accept our sincere apologies for any inconvenience caused, and please do not hesitate to contact the Practice if you have any questions regarding this topic.
