nmc5108 Posted June 27, 2018 Hi all, I resigned from my position and my last day is Friday. I have a lot of unused script pads and wanted to make sure I get rid of them properly. Do I just put them in a hippa bin to be shredded? Thanks
sas5814 Posted June 27, 2018 That is what I did with mine. It seems a secure document shredder is about as good as it gets short of shredding them yourself.
Reality Check 2 Posted June 28, 2018 If in a large enough organization - take them to the ROI - Release of Information or Medical Records or whatever they call themselves these days and watch them be shredded there or put in a locked industrial shred bin. Our shred bins in our room are locked and one person comes by and clears them into an industrial size rolling locked bin. Some places just put an open bin under your desk for shred - nothing good can come from that. If you have a fire pit at home - enjoy....................

Moderator ventana Posted June 28, 2018 Moderator I like two methods 1 - bon fire and burn - great if you did not like your job..... therapy! 2 - shred - but this is a PIA 3- put in a plastic bag, pour the grossest nasty rotten food and water on them, slosh them around, then throw them out. Figure anyone willing to dig through horible smelling trash, or any pharmacists that fills a gross script, needs to get their head examined... gotta be gross, nasty and wet for this to work.... Fire in summer, shred in winter...
