Explanation

The customer would need to click on the "How do I use it?" tab to find the link for the instructions. This tab is specifically designed to provide information on how to use the product, which would include any instructions or guidelines. The other tabs mentioned, such as "Who is it for?" and "Description," may provide additional information about the product but would not specifically include the instructions. Therefore, the "How do I use it?" tab is the most appropriate option for finding the link to the instructions.

Explanation

Sharps Compliance is a company that specializes in the management and disposal of medical waste, including sharps waste. While they do handle hazardous waste, it is important to note that not all hazardous waste is sharps waste. Therefore, the statement that Sharps Compliance treats hazardous waste is false.

Submit

13. We can ship item 83000, 3-Gallon TakeAway Recovery System, to Chile.

Explanation

The statement says that we can ship item 83000, 3-Gallon TakeAway Recovery System, to Chile. However, the answer is false because the statement does not provide any information or criteria that would determine whether or not the item can be shipped to Chile. Therefore, without any additional information, it cannot be determined whether the statement is true or false.

Explanation

The statement mentions that TakeAway Recovery Systems (excluding medication systems) can be shipped to customers in Florida.

Therefore, we cannot make any conclusion based on the given statement.

Submit

The normal method of shipping product to customers is UPS because UPS is a well-known and reliable shipping company that offers a wide range of services and delivery options.

Additionally, UPS provides tracking services, insurance options, and various shipping solutions tailored to meet the needs of different businesses and customers.

16. Contact amalgam can be disposed of in the 5-Gallon TakeAway Recovery System.

Explanation

The given statement is false because contact amalgam cannot be disposed of in the 5-Gallon TakeAway Recovery System. The 5-Gallon TakeAway Recovery System is designed for the proper disposal of dental amalgam waste, which is a mixture of mercury and other metals used in dental fillings. Contact amalgam, on the other hand, refers to the amalgam material that comes into direct contact with the patient's teeth during the dental procedure. Therefore, it requires a different disposal method and cannot be disposed of in the 5-Gallon TakeAway Recovery System.

Submit

Explanation

The customer cannot use the 20-Gallon TakeAway Recovery System to dispose of their used healthcare products without being in a primary sharps container. This means that the healthcare products must be placed in a primary sharps container before being disposed of using the 20-Gallon TakeAway Recovery System.

Submit
18. Which of the following allows customers to dispose of controlled substances?

Explanation

Both the 18-Gallon MedSafe Receptacle and the 2-Gallon TakeAway Medication Return System allow customers to dispose of controlled substances. This means that customers can safely and responsibly dispose of these substances using either of these options. The 10-Gallon TakeAway Environmental Return System is not mentioned as an option for disposing of controlled substances, so it is not the correct answer. Therefore, the correct answer is Both A and C.
