UltiMed's UltiCare brand offers solution for users of lancets and syringes

ST. PAUL, Minn. Ulti Med rolled out a turnkey sharps dispense and dispose system last week at the ECMR Home Health Care conference in Chicago, providing a solution for users of lancet devices and syringes — like diabetics, for example — who don’t have an environmentally-safe disposal receptacle readily available.

The UltiCare brand includes a unit that dispenses the pen needles and insulin syringes and doubles as an appropriate sharps container that meets the requirements of the recently-passed California Senate Bill 1305 that mandates proper disposal of home-generated syringes, needles and lancets.
