What is happening?
·
Beds, trolleys and other items have been found in stairwells and
corridors, blocking emergency and day to day paths of travel.
Why is this a problem?
·
Any item left in an emergency egress path has the potential to delay the
safe evacuation of staff, patients and visitors in the event that an emergency
incident requires a physical evacuation.
·
During day to day operations, items left in corridors have the potential
to cause injury to our staff.
What can I do about this?
·
Beds, trolleys and other items must not be left in stairwells and
corridors blocking emergency and day to day paths of travel.
·
Concerns related to storage of beds and equipment or disposal of faulty
items must be escalated or reported to your direct supervisor.
How
do I get more information or report a concern?
· In
the event that you observe a bed, trolley or other item blocking a path of
travel anywhere onsite you should report this to the General Services team or
directly to your supervisor.
What
if I need more information?
