Keep It Secure, While Keeping It Labeled
ISSUE NO. 620
Who keeps an abundance of empty Cool Whip containers for leftovers? Have you ever had so many in the fridge that you need to label what food is inside? Or better yet, write a date on it so you know it is still alright to consume. Sometimes secured items can become safety concerns because they aren't properly labeled.
 
It’s very important in healthcare to not only secure items, but to also use tamper-evident products to indicate whether the contents inside are "clean" or "dirty" and should be treated as  biohazardous materials. This has been effectively used in endoscopy, especially when transporting flexible endoscopes between uses. Sealable trays allow you to create a controlled delivery and retrieval system for endoscopes with tamper-evident seals. Not only is each tray secured with a tamper-evident seal, but anyone handling the items clearly knows if the contents inside have already been reprocessed or if they are dirty.
