What needle & sharps cleanup covers:
For outdoor spaces, the crew walks fence lines, planters, corners and bushes where needles collect.

Yes. Insulin pen needles, lancets and similar small devices are sharps, even though they are used for health care. They should go into a rigid container, never loose into trash.
They can be tucked into couch cushions, mattress seams, drawers, vents and ceiling tiles. That is why a sharps sweep covers more than the floor. Crews check hidden spots with tools and light before declaring a room clear.
Ask about discreet arrival in an unmarked vehicle if privacy matters.
