What is the purpose of the Sharps Shuttle Kit?

The purpose of the Sharps Shuttle Kit is to provide a safe and effective means for the disposal of needles and syringes. This type of kit is essential in settings where these sharp objects are used, such as healthcare environments or aboard aircraft where medications may be administered. Proper disposal is crucial to prevent needle-stick injuries and to comply with health and safety regulations.

The Sharps Shuttle Kit is specifically designed to contain sharp instruments safely until they can be disposed of appropriately. It helps protect both crew members and passengers from potential harm associated with improperly thrown away syringes or needles. This focused design distinguishes it from other types of kits, such as first aid supply kits, diagnostic equipment kits, or medication storage kits, which have different purposes and contents.
