Safety & Benefits

Safety first! I take care of each and every placenta and it's processing, with the utmost care, respect, and safety it deserves.

• Placentas are kept refrigerated until processing can begin

• I work on only one placenta at a time so that there is no chance of a mix-up

• Dehydration takes place in only a high quality dehydrator with a temperature gauge, never an oven

• Certifications in OSHA standards & precautions, BBP protocol and ServSafe guidelines are strictly adhered to for your protection and mine

• All surfaces are washed and sanitized in bleach solution prior to use

• All personal protective equipment (disposable gloves, aprons, etc.) are used EVERY time

• All surfaces and equipment are washed, sanitized or disposed of between each use

• As many disposable items are used as possible (apron, gloves, bowls, knifes, etc)

• All reusable equipment are sanitized in a bleach solution for at least 10 minutes per OSHA guidelines
