Laundry Carts

About Laundry Carts

Laundry carts in hospitals play a critical role in maintaining hygiene, infection control, and operational efficiency. These carts are specifically designed to transport soiled and clean linens safely and efficiently between patient rooms, wards, operating rooms, and hospital laundries.

Key Purposes:

1. Collection of Soiled Linens:

   • Used to collect used bed sheets, towels, gowns, and other washable items from patient rooms and clinical areas.

   • Often marked or color-coded to differentiate soiled linens and prevent cross-contamination.

2. Transport to Laundry Facility:

   • Carts are used to move the soiled laundry to an in-house or external hospital laundry service.

3. Distribution of Clean Linens:

   • After laundering, clean linens are loaded onto sanitized carts for distribution back to various hospital departments.
