Hello Forum Members,
With due regard to the use of disposable paper sheets in ambulance.
Let me assure you that the use of dispoasable paper sheets and pillow cases (even draw sheets) are common with advanced ambulance services interstate and overseas. Have a think why and you may just understand a bit about cost savings, not using hospital linen, (costing hospital budgets) and that wonderful statement 'Infection Control'. I am sure every self respecting ambo would understand the protocols in regard to 'VRE' 'MSRA' and many other little things we can pick up if we do not exercise basic skills and the obvious "every patient is a infectious risk regardless', thus the use of disposable paper products. Had an x'ray lately, they use them.
