This company specialises in Equipment Health & Safety Infection Control Manufacturers Waste Disposal

With Hepatitis B, Hepatitis C and HIV infection rates constantly rising within the UK there has never been a more important time to guard your team against accidental needle-stick injury. The potential risk of needle-stick injury is of constant concern to all members of the practice team. The associated anxiety and trauma from a member of staff experiencing a needle-stick injury can have serious effects on both staff and patients whilst waiting for test results. In 2003, there was a 20% increase in the incidence of HIV in the UK (www.hpa.org.uk).

In modern dentistry we fully accept the everyday need for personal protection against blood-borne viruses, wearing gloves, mask and safety glasses without question. The final piece in the infection control jigsaw is provided by Safe-Point, the very latest approach to needle safety which endeavours to make needle-stick injury a thing of the past. This ingenious new machine is operated with both hands safely clear of the contaminated needle. The Safe-Point mechanism automatically removes the needle from the syringe and deposits it into the detachable UN approved sharps bin, eliminating the hazard from the surgery within seconds.

 

32% of sharps injuries within the dental practice occur when attempting to re-sheath or remove a potentially infected needle. A fatal needle-stick today could ruin your business tomorrow.

 

Safe-Point comes with a 1 year warranty and costs £255 exc. vat – a small price to pay for the protection gained. Stockists include The Dental Directory, Minerva, Dental Buying Group and Henry Schein (Ireland). Units can also be rented at £15 per month through Braemar Finance.
