Red Emergency Carts are available in every student clinic. The Inventory Associates and/or Clinic Assistants complete a Monthly Emergency Cart Checklist (the form is available from the Department of Compliance). The purpose is to identify expired or missing medications and supplies and to replenish oxygen tanks. Each clinic’s checklist is turned in to the Director of Compliance (DOC) for record keeping. The DOC maintains all emergency cart contents for replacement when expired. All expired medications are disposed of according to OUHSC hazardous waste disposal protocol. The emergency carts are equipped with the following items:
