Endoscope question
Just checking if there was minimal height scopes may hang in their cupboard from the floor that anyone could enlighten me on and where this reference may come from (obviously Not on the floor is the point but hoping for anything more specific if available)
I have checked GENCA Infection control guidelines (2010 pg 33 storage) and cant find any specific measurement
The Old AS4187 (2003) 9.2.1 (pg 72) provides information on minimum height for open shelving being 250mm above the floor
Can find anything useful in new As4187 2014 re storage.
Appreciate any advice for me to feedback to my organisation as I am looking at going with the old AS4187 250mm above the floor unless anyone knows more & can send me a line
Kind regards and thanks in advance
Lindy
