Our partners in the Capital Division have recently installed Cactus Smart Sinks. Cactus Smart Sinks are used to waste controlled substances.

**Cactus Smart Sink for wasting Controlled Substances**

- Use for wasting ONLY Controlled Substances
- Do NOT use for non-controlled medications
- See labeled locations for placing liquids, solids, and patches
- **NO needles, syringes, vials, medication packaging or trash in or on top of cartridges**
- **Be sure to ALWAYS unwrap tablets from packaging before disposal**
- If full, beeping or flashing red, contact pharmacy

Please ensure you are aware of how to properly waste controlled substances at the facility you are working. 

Thank you for ALL YOU DO!
