Bag 2 Supplies: Yankeur Suction, Suction Catheter kit, suction tubing, 80 mm oral airway,
90 mm oral airway, & 100 cm oral airway
- Above you see pictures of 2 bags that will be at hand at each patient's bedside.
- If you open the supplies for a patient they are only to be used for that patient for the duration of their stay.
- Housekeeping will be wiping off the bags if they are not opened but if the seal is opened then the bag "belongs" to that patient.
- New supplies in a new bag will be replaced if the bag is opened for a prior patient.
- I expect that the suction cannister if used will be replaced in the room other wise housekeeping is only wiping down the exterior surfaces of everything.
- This is in an effort to decrease patient exposure especially given the volume of isolation patients we see on a daily basis.
Thanks for your help in keeping our patients safe.
