abstract: The legislation on transportation and disposal of clinical waste by community nurses may have been misinterpreted There has been no clear communication of legal requirement and current practice between those administering the service and the community nurses The transportation of clinical waste by the community nurse should only occur if there is no other acceptable method, an approved rigid container is used, and this container is transported in the boot of the nurse's car to the clinical waste collection point at her base
