We are currently undertaking redevelopment activities on our main campus and an issue of where to house the specimen refrigerator has arisen. We do not have an onsite pathology service and rely on courier service to collect specimens for testing. The project officers would like the specimen refrigerators to be housed in the utility/ dirty room and the other option is for them to go into the treatment room. I’m wondering if other ICPs with similar dilemma (utilise specimen refrigerators) can provide comments around where they should be located. Unfortunately I can’t seem to find any evidence of where specimen refrigerators should be located, although treatment rooms would be preferred – from aspect of not wanting couriers/ staff to enter dirty zones to access specimens. Many thanks. Jen
