Explanation:

• "Immediately use the safety devices on needles" is a standard practice to prevent needlesticks as safety devices (like needle shields) reduce exposure.
• "Avoid overfilling sharps containers" is important because overfilled containers increase the risk of accidental sticks when disposing of sharps.
• "Use the two - handed scoop method when there is no alternative" is a technique to handle sharps safely when other methods aren't possible, reducing the chance of needlesticks.
• "Bend used needles to ensure that they aren't reused" is incorrect because bending needles increases the risk of needlesticks and is not a recommended safety practice.

Answer:

• Immediately use the safety devices on needles
• Avoid overfilling sharps containers
