Laundry Systems for health care
institutions
Laundry service is responsible for providing an
adequate, clean and constant supply of linen to all
users. The basic tasks include: sorting, washing,
extracting, drying, ironing, folding, mending and
delivery. A reliable laundry service is of utmost
importance to the hospital. In today’s medical care
facilities, patients expect linen to be changed daily.
An adequate supply of clean linen is sufficient for
the comfort and safety of the patient thus becomes
essential.
The term ‘hospital linen’ includes all textiles used
in the hospital including mattress, pillow covers,
blankets, bed sheets, towels, screens, curtains, doctors
coats, theatre cloth and table cloths. Cotton is the
most preferred and frequently used material. The
hospital receives all these materials from different
areas like Operation Theatre, wards, outpatient
departments and office areas. The OT linen materials
need special care since it has to be washed &
sterilized carefully. So if possible, the hospital can go
for separate laundry process for OT linen materials
alone.
The hospital can either purchase washing
machine or engage a washer man (dhobi) to manually
wash the clothes
The main purpose of this department is to provide
clean material to the patients and ensure that hygienic
conditions are maintained in the process.

WHY INSTALL AN ON-PREMISES HOSPITAL LAUNDRY?
LAUNMARK HOSPITAL LAUNDRY PROJECT |
1. Launder everything on premises.
A
LAUNMARK on-premises laundry can handle all of a health care institution's clean
fabric needs in a simple manner. LAUNMARK machinery can process patient
gowns, pajamas and personal apparel, adult diapers, towels, linens, mattress
covers, blankets, pillows, plus such items as employee uniforms, slip covers
and cleaning rags. Many types of rugs and drapes can be processed in a LAUNMARK
on-premises laundry.
2. Enhance the image of your institution.
Many
operators have enhanced their image of quality, and brightened their patients
environment, through tasteful fabric selection. Everything from linen to drapes
can be selected in the colors and patterns of your choice and processed in your
LAUNMARK equipment.
3. Get more use from less inventory.
An
on-premises laundry provides more use from less inventory. Smaller stocks meet
your needs since you are no longer dependent on pickup and delivery. Towels,
linens, and patients' apparel can be laundered immediately after use and be
ready again in about an hour if necessary. Smaller inventories mean less
storage space and more money for investment elsewhere.
4. You won't be caught short.
On-premises
laundering eliminates "caught short" situations. It gives you a ready
supply of adult diapers, linens, towels, patient gowns, and pajamas. This is
especially important during weekends and holidays when outside services are not
available.
5. Control quality, sanitation.
On-premises
laundering assures quality processing because you are in control. You can
prolong fabric life by using a distinct formula for the specific degree of
soil. LAUNMARK's laundry machinery make this easy, with several specific
formula developed and field-tested by chemists for health care facilities.
LAUNMARK laundry machinery also combine commercial washing action with the
ability to wash at high temperatures so you can be sure sanitary safeguards can
be maintained. LAUNMARK laundry machinery, installed in a wall separating clean
and soiled areas, are available for medium and large sized institutions where
infection control is vital.
WHAT IS
NEEDED FOR AN ON-PREMISES LAUNDRY?
1. Equipment
Operating
a health care on-premises laundry is simple. Laundry machinery, dryer, sink,
folding table, and supplies are generally all you need. Often, an institution's
existing hot water, gas, and electrical services are sufficient. An on-premises
laundry is basically an extension of your present services.
A
top quality LAUNMARK's laundry machinery, with a proven track record in commercial use,
brings professional laundering ability to your institution. It will make better
use of water and soap, improve washing quality, and handle bulky items. It's
best to get a machine with a large cylinder, which provides the ability to
launder items such as diapers, mop heads, and cleaning rags.
Dryers
can use gas, steam or electric heat (gas is regarded as the most efficient).
For faster drying and less wrinkling of polyester materials, it is generally
desirable for the dryer to be rated at a slightly larger capacity than the
washer-extractor. An area for folding is necessary, too. A 2' x 6' table proves
sufficient for most institutions. After folding, the items simply have to be
stored.
2. Space
An
on-premises laundry doesn't require much space. An equipment room or an
existing linen storage room is adequate for many facilities. An unproductive
room with a poor location may also be used or a combination of these rooms
could be used in a large institution. A larger, central laundry can serve
affiliated facilities near each other. A LAUNMARK dealer's laundry planning
department provides specially prepared layout drawings for facilities at no
charge.
3. Labour
In
some institutions there is no need for additional help. Existing housekeeping
and maintenance employees can handle the laundry during the slower parts of the
day. Equipment that is easy to operate is essential to maintain consistent
quality and production. LAUNMARK's laundry machinery are particularly easy to use. The
operator simply loads the machine, pushes a button to select the formula,
pushes the start button, and can go on to other tasks since the machine
requires no more attention.
WHAT
SHOULD YOU LOOK FOR IN A LAUNDRY MACHINERY?
1. Easy operation
The
laundry machinery you select should have easy, automatic controls that make
operation simple and free the operator to handle other duties. With LAUNMARK's
pre programmed machines, the operator simply matches the type of goods being
loaded to the formula named for these goods ("towels", for example),
then pushes a button. Operation of field-programmable formula is similar.
Formula on the alphanumeric display can be named to match goods, making
selection easy. Because so little judgment is required, new employees get the
knack quickly. Substitute employees can take over with ease, too.
Automatic
supply injection further reduces operator responsibility and helps ensure
consistent quality. LAUNMARK machines readily accept liquid chemicals, making
hookup fast and easy. Other factors to look for are a large, accessible door
for fast loading/unloading, and door safety interlock which prevents opening
while the machine is operating.
2. Laundering quality
Washing
flexibility should not be sacrificed for operation simplicity. Only a
commercial laundry machinery, with professional tumble washing action, can
properly clean stained linen, soiled diapers, and dirty apparel.
A
cylinder with a large diameter should be among the top priorities when choosing
a laundry machinery. The large diameter provides the lift and drop action
necessary to clean hard-to-launder items. When comparing machines, compare
actual cylinder dimensions and specific cubic foot volumes.
Also,
look for microprocessor controls which give a greater range of processing
choices as well as more accurate control over how goods are processed. The
pre-programmed formula in LAUNMARK machines were developed specifically for the
needs of health care facilities. They are not common-denominator formula. The formula
differ in number, type, time and temperature of baths, as well as supply
injection. By pushing a button, these formula can be adjusted for either
permanent press or all-cotton fabrics. The machines are available in 25 to 160
lb. capacities.
3. Heavy duty construction
Rugged
construction -- from top quality materials -- is imperative if you expect
long-term service. Check competitive brands to see if their construction stands
up to LAUNMARK specifications. Compare spec literature. There can be a big difference
in quality.
LAUNMARK
machines stand apart from others with features like:
·
large, tapered
roller bearings and a triple shaft seal to shield the bearings from water
·
the exclusive use
of continuous, rather than spot, welding for greater strength and reliability
·
the simplicity
and dependability of heavy duty, single-speed motors
· Pre-extract load
balancing speed to reduce vibration and extend machine life
·
a console
constructed of heavy gauge materials
