SDS Management Software for Healthcare Facilities and Hospitals

OSHA's HazCom Standard (29 CFR 1910.1200) requires training on chemical hazards and an accessible SDS for every material. In hospitals, this covers cleaning staff, lab techs, pharmacy teams, and clinical staff. 

USP Chapter 800 sets rules for safe receiving, storage, prep, dispensing, administration, and disposal of hazardous drugs. SDS documentation forms the basis of the HD list and USP 800 exposure assessment. 

TJC accredits hospitals on managing and detecting hazardous materials and waste, including keeping accessible documentation of chemical dangers. EC.02.02.01 specifically governs hazardous materials management. 

NIOSH has a list of hazardous medications that it updates every year for healthcare personnel. SDS coverage for compounds on this list should be maintained for purposes of exposure control planning.

Many states have more stringent chemical hazard communication requirements than federal OSHA guidelines, notably for public sector health care workers.

Transportation of petroleum products, compressed gases and other chemicals in the energy sector require updated SDS paperwork for emergency response information.

SDS management of  hazardous drug: keep a full SDS library for antineoplastics, immunosuppressants, antivirals, and other hazardous pharmaceuticals used in pharmacy and clinical settings, as specified by NIOSH. 

CloudSDS connects with NDC (National Drug Code) databases to auto-identify correct manufacturers and pull relevant SDS documentation for medications by NDC code, a unique capability for hospital pharmacy team. 

Hospitals use phenolics, quaternary ammonium, bleach, ethylene oxide, and glutaraldehyde. CloudSDS ensures housekeeping, sterile processing, and infection control staff have GHS-compliant SDS for each product 

SDS documents cover first aid measures for chemical exposures, spill response steps, and PPE requirements. During any incident, CloudSDS puts this information at your fingertips within seconds, not in minutes. 

Generate GHS-compatible secondary container labels for chemical transfers, storage areas, and satellite pharmacy locations, helping hospital staff remain compliant while reducing mislabeling risks and errors 

Preserve and communicate a list of compounds deemed too hazardous for certain uses, allowed only with strict controls, or restricted under facility policy, so staff always have visibility into these limits.
