4 WINDOW ORDERS AND BULK ORDERS The window in is designed to give emergency supplies needed for patient care when the department is out of stock. Departments are encouraged to only come to the window to get a maximum of five items per day. If you believe that some items on your par need to be added, increased, or decreased please let us know so that we may immediately change your par. We also encourage the departments to please check your stock daily and place your orders in Lawson when stock is low and not depleted. We request that units should communicate with each other and see if all orders for your department can be batched instead of multiple orders coming to Central distribution daily for your department. A memo has been sent to every bulk order delivery location (departments or locations that are not in a patient unit) showing your scheduled delivery days. This memo is not for in patient departments that inventories daily but are inventoried by there own stock clerks or HUC s. wants to provide every department with quality customer service everyday so your participation in this is greatly appreciated. Thank You in advance, DELIVERY OF BULK ORDERS This memo is in reference to departments that request a bulk order. A bulk order is an order for a department that is not in a patient unit. Due to the high volume of bulk orders requested daily we have assigned a delivery schedule to each of the departments. We believe this will help us provide quality service to your department as well as others. This will allow us to improve delivering the bulk orders on time to the departments and eliminating any errors of items received. Each department has received a copy of this memo along with there scheduled delivery day of there orders. This schedule was effective on November 1 st, Your help in following this schedule is greatly appreciated as it will help us provide our customers with timely delivery of supplies needed to provide exceptional customer service. If you have any further questions or concerns please do not hesitate to contact us. Thank You,

5 CD Window Closing For Lunch has a window that customers currently use to pick up supplies Monday through Friday from 8:00am until 4:00pm. The window is closed from 12:00pm until 1:00pm due to the reduced number of staff available to assist customers during the lunch hour. Regular orders processed through Lawson will still be processed and delivered during this time. This will allow the Stock Clerks to concentrate on those orders with reduced staff rather than pulling both types of orders (Lawson vs. Window). A notice will be placed at the window and we re giving a two week notice to allow our customers to become familiar with the revised schedule. Thank you. Service Type Issues for Linen 7 days a week from 7am to 11pm calls for service type issues for the Linen Room will be available through the Service Response Center ( ).

6 News From Linen Linen Supervisor The contact information for Ayana and the Linen Department is as follows: Linen Room Ayana Johnson or office pager Proper use of Linen, Hamper Bags, and Chutes The collection and processing of soiled linen poses a number of safety and health hazards if not done appropriately. Therefore, the Linen Department is requesting your assistance in keeping our employees safe. Please follow these simple procedures when discarding soiled linen. Do NOT flush linen in toilets or hoppers. The hospital s plumbing is not large enough to accommodate the size of the linen. Flushing linen causes blockages in the pipes, which causes back-ups that are costly to clean up. Only human waste and tissue should be flushed. Do NOT throw away linen. Every article of linen is washed and rewashed if necessary. For every article of linen that is not returned, the Linen Department must replace it. Do NOT use linen to clean equipment. Environmental Services has its own cloths for cleaning. Every article of linen is washed. However, the chemicals that are used for cleaning are sometimes difficult to remove causing the laundry facility to have to rewash them, which reduces the number of times the article can be used. Do NOT overfill the hamper bags. Only place enough linen in a hamper bag to fill it ¾ full. The flap on the hamper bag should be able to fold over to completely seal the bag once it is full. And remember, if you can t lift it, we can t lift it. Do NOT place linen down the chute without first placing in a hamper bag and folding over the flap to close it and secure the linen inside. Linen that is not bagged or an improperly filled/closed bag results in someone having to pick up soiled linen by hand. While appropriate PPE is used, the linen employee should not handle or be exposed to soiled linen. Only place hamper bags in the linen chute. Some items that we have found are o chucks (or blue disposable underpads from ) o slippers (from ) o human waste o syringes (from ) o plastic bags Do close the flap on the hamper bag before placing the bag in a keg or in the chute. If you have any questions about the proper way to handle soiled linen, please contact Ayana Johnson at Thank you.
