Abstract
A package for medical needle assemblies and the like including a shield, a cap, and a closure. The shield encloses the needle and a portion of the hub. The cap is mounted on the shield so that it is shiftable between two positions. In the first position it protects the exposed portion of the hub extending from the shield and in the second position it is slidable along the shield to expose the portion of the hub projecting from the shield to facilitate grasping and removal of the needle assembly from the package. The closure covers the opening in the cap and is removable when the package is opened. The closure in working cooperation with a sealing engagement between the cap and the shield seals the needle assembly in the package.
