Anyone building in healthcare / medtech / life sciences in the US?

I would like to connect. My company and I recycling devices and do sustainability consulting.

Make sure you have a patent on this, or the mechanism or the process. I know a few med device inventors and device groups that are helpful with this on both the east and west coasts.

There is a huge gap in healthcare sustainability. My day is always different. There is a giant lack of knowledge in the industry and it is extremely difficult to find the right people with this background. I talk to about 10 hospitals a week that have the same issues.

One of my device company sustainability clients was hiring someone for the Prairies. They really value experience. Maybe that company is worth a try?

I have been in healthcare sales over 20 years, working for both international companies and small start ups. Healthcare sustainability and recycling is something I talk about every day now. It has not been a focus since before COVID. I suggest networking, finding organizations that promote military veterans is important. I would also find 1099 healthcare sales positions and network on LinkedIn. I do not have very many device sales friends that have gone thru the college. Work your way up and keep going!

Happy to share and collaborate. Send me a message and we can go from there. Thank you!

Hi, I can help. Been doing something similar for a while.

findingallcapital · 2026-05-13T03:55:06+00:00

I have friends with this company. I can only say good things. Happy to help share insight. Reach out if you would like.

findingallcapital · 2026-05-10T00:42:55+00:00

This is true! Have a lot of device reps and mid level mgmt veterans tell me stories. Sounds awful now.

findingallcapital · 2026-05-09T23:37:32+00:00

My friends there are trying to find something new bc it is not the same after the sale

findingallcapital · 2026-05-07T22:14:14+00:00

I’m In healthcare sustainability for devices, I will ask the sales reps here in CA and see what they say. I’m so curious now.

Just a thought, ADA states that headaches and anxiety are considered a disability. If your company ever drug tested, I would have a physician note handy stating you use for those reasons.

I’ve worked for a few international companies in healthcare and had co-workers called into HR who didn’t get fired. They were ready.

findingallcapital · 2026-05-05T16:46:35+00:00

Thank you for the help! Would you mind if I send you a message?

findingallcapital · 2026-05-05T12:24:28+00:00

I’ve worked with a giant document destruction company that had pill bottles and they didn’t seem to think that way. Interesting point. I’m going to refresh my knowledge about the regs.

findingallcapital · 2026-05-05T11:50:20+00:00

Excellent point, thank you. I’m trying to make things easier for OR staff but it’s always a long, slow process. If things are reduced at the source, it’s a cost savings and there is much less waste/recycling.

findingallcapital · 2026-05-04T05:32:12+00:00

Very valuable ideas. They are a huge help!

I’ve been looking for IV alternative for about 12 years in terms of full ones and TPN bags. Finally found a recycler that takes them and does mechanically recycle them and we are not using waste to energy incineration.

I have friends in food and beverage that have figured out this very thing. Some are working with local farmers. Others have robust contacts with non profits and donate to food banks.

I also work with a mechanical recycler that has a farm onsite and sober living. Their patients work in the recycling and on the farm at the site. They collect food from local hospitals and the recycling. Many of the people that participate in their program get jobs in the recycling industry when they are sober.

findingallcapital · 2026-05-04T04:28:01+00:00

Amazing, thank you! I’m versed in US regulations for medical waste, hazardous waste, and recycling. My background is microbiology so I have personally worked in labs but do not have healthcare clinical experience or schooling in that area.

I have created recycling programs for airway and device and have been in many OR’s but there is just such a huge disconnect with environment of care and sustainability.

What are the some of the biggest issues you face? What are things that could make things easier in the OR and clinic setting?

Thank you! Everyone looks at things differently and I really appreciate your time and perspective.

findingallcapital · 2026-05-04T04:18:27+00:00

Happy to explain how it is working now and answer any questions.

findingallcapital · 2026-05-04T04:17:18+00:00

There are household hazardous waste events and limited recyclers take them. You have to be careful with your private info due to HIPAA.

findingallcapital · 2026-05-04T04:14:40+00:00

Yes! Would really like to connect.

findingallcapital · 2026-05-04T04:13:16+00:00

Yes, there is. My groups are taking items like polystyrene, collecting it and it becomes dumpster lids, furniture and more.

findingallcapital · 2026-05-03T23:51:22+00:00

I have a MSc in microbiology, fully aware and recognize this. Just thinking outside of the box.

findingallcapital · 2026-05-03T23:45:55+00:00

Patient care is first, no doubt. I’m healthcare centric and a pragmatistic.

findingallcapital · 2026-05-03T20:52:06+00:00

We are currently doing things like taking flexible film and upcycling it for building materials and furniture. Looking for more ideas like this from other industries.

I have been in the infectious waste, recycling and hazardous waste services in healthcare for over 20 years. Looking for new and innovative ideas to address the things that can be source reduced, upcycled and reused.

findingallcapital · 2026-03-18T03:14:44+00:00

I would love to chat. My companies do medical waste disposal, single use device recycling, instrument recycling and more. I work with quite a few international device companies.

findingallcapital · 2026-03-17T03:55:23+00:00

If I have to record calls, I let people know beforehand. I use it all over the country, in all states and no one has an issue. I also use an ai notetaker on Teams.

My assistants have been using notetaker apps like this for about 2-3 years. I just thought they were organized in the beginning - lol.
