Hi,
We are currently having to cover all our instrument trays with costly (22p /each) bags to transport the used instruments from theatre to CSSD. This is a requirement outlined by CQC as we don’t have a ‘dirty’ corridor and have to use the only through fare in theatres.
My concern is the environmental impact of using plastic single use bags, manual handling, infection control.
Does anyone have a similar challenge and have found a more sustainable solution?
Many thanks
