• Laundry hampers placed in the hallway should be at least one room away from clean linen carts, or placed according to hospital policy.

• The clean linen cart is always covered; replace the cover after removing required linen.

• Take only the linens you need into the patient’s room.

• Linens that touch the floor are considered dirty and are placed in the laundry hamper; they are not used.

• Avoid contact between the linens and your uniform (for both clean and soiled linens).

• Unused linen is never returned to the clean linen cart; it is placed in the laundry hamper.

• Soiled linen is never placed on environmental surfaces in the room, such as the overbed table, chair, or floor; soiled linens are placed in the appropriate laundry hamper.

• Fill laundry hampers no more that two-thirds full. Keep the lid of the hamper on tightly at all times.

• Many facilities do not permit laundry hampers or barrels to be taken into the patient’s room. Soiled linen may be placed in a plastic bag or a pillowcase in the room. Make a cuff at the top of the bag or open end of the pillowcase and place the cuff over the back of the chair. When the bag or case is two-thirds full, secure the top and place it in the hamper in the hallway.

• Laundry hampers or barrels are returned to the utility room after use, or as directed by facility policy.
