Providing adequate training is vital to the successful implementation of a healthcare plastics recycling program. Specifically, providing context and instruction will help ensure that staff clearly understand what materials are and are not part of the program and how the program will be managed. To help streamline things, HPRC has developed two customizable templates to serve as a guide for organizations in need of training support for their staff.

First is a poster template that can be tailored to your hospital’s program and then posted in areas designated for program implementation where staff can readily reference it. This helps ensure that staff clearly understand what materials are and are not part of the program.

Second is a presentation deck that will walk you through the components you should plan to cover in a staff training session, including a program and business case overview, what is being collected and how, and contamination avoidance.
