Hazardous Chemical Inventory List


The department in VCU/MCVH must compile a list of hazardous chemical substances. The list must be maintained in an area which is readily available to all departmental employees. As new substances are purchased or old ones are discontinued, the inventory must be updated to reflect these changes. OEHS maintains chemical lists representative of several general areas of the hospital such as nursing stations, housekeeping, general office, etc. These lists are available upon request (828- 1392). If a general list is utilized, it must be reconciled to accurately reflect the specific chemical inventory of the department.
