Full disclosure-I work in the OR at hospital and we throw out a TON of single use supplies for surgery. Things like towels, fabric wrapping, surgical sponges, plastic basins, and other random single use materials. I hate throwing these clean items out but since they are no longer sterile we have no choice but to throw them away. The hospital can’t put this stuff back on the shelves so my coworkers and I take home what we want and throw the rest away but it’s still so much getting thrown out is there anything my local vet might want to take as donation? I know they work with a lot of local shelters as well as having their own OR in office which is why I’m asking if it’s worth it to bring stuff over to them
