Hello – hope you are well
Apologies if posting this nature have already occurred…
Just wondering if anyone had a simple checklist with what was required to meet AS4187 for transport vehicles delivering & picking up sterile & contaminated goods in the same trip.
We have a fair idea already about requirements such as separation of the vehicle clean / dirty etc , but wondering about flooring types requirements , separation material , container securement options , cleaning frequency, WHS aspects etc & so was wondering if anyone had anything already developed they would be willing to share ….and any reference point that this information was developed from if they have it.We are currently looking to upgrade our processes for transporting our sterile and return of non-sterile items to our SSD between our smaller rural facilities using one designated vehicle
Also
We are and looking at the feasibility of combining our pathology specimens collection and drop off as well (they would be contained in the dirty side and a fridge would be in the van as well to for specimen transfer per required conditions) this is being suggested for cost & service efficiency perspective for our smaller sites …. so was looking for pros and cons re having pathology also part of the courier service that transports our SSD stock & advice or experience around thisSo Any precedence’s or advice & checklists most welcome and appreciated!!
Kind regards
Lindy
