Briefing

Description
The Bay - Blood Fridge is an area provided within a secure, staff only area for the storage of blood products. This bay is typically provided in critical care and operating theatre units where the pathology department is not located nearby.
Hours of Operation
Up to 24 hours (dependent on unit operating hours)
Occupancy
1-2 staff intermittently
Additional Considerations
~ A pass-through layout may be developed depending on service requirements and location (e.g. in relation to limiting access to the clean area of operating theatres). ~ Refrigerator temperature monitoring is required and is to be connected to the building management system (BMS). The alarm is to provide alerts where 24-hour monitoring is undertaken, within the unit and/or remotely. Temperature monitoring is to meet ANZSBT guidelines. ~ Requirements for accurate record keeping are to be supported through operational policies and service workflows. ~ Provision of smart fridges to support blood product tracking and other ICT requirements will be based on local policies and service requirements.
