FW: Pat slide sheets

[TERRI CRIPPS]

Hi all,

Just wondering how some of you clean the nylon slide sheets used with pat slides? At present in the hospital there are several different ways to do it and we would like to standardise this process using best practice.

Thanks,

Hi Terri,

All our slide sheets are sent to the external laundry for washing. We
do not reprocess them on site at all.

They are used for single patients only and when soiled or the patient is
discharged they go out in the dirty linen.

Kind regards,

Fiona De Sousa

Hi Terrie,

Our system is the same here at Austin Health as well. The slides sheets
are single patient use (or when soiled) and go into the normal linen
bags to an external laundry for laundering. The slide sheets are a
standard item on our linen trolleys for all wards.

Regards,
Donna.
