11、ments, dimensions, materials and constructional requirements for general purpose hospital bedside lockers, made of wood, with facilities for hanging day clothes. 2 References The titles of the publications referred to in this standard are listed on the inside back cover. 3 Basic user and design requ

12、irements 3.1 The locker shall provide accommodation for most of the items detailed below. Those marked with an asterisk should be most readily accessible from the bed. a) Clothes. Day clothes, night clothes, underclothes, socks and bedsocks, handkerchiefs*, dressing gown, slippers, bed jacket or car

13、digan. b) Toilet articles*. Towels, soap, flannel, shaving gear or cosmetics, hair brush, comb, toothbrush, toothpaste, tooth mugs, denture bath, disposable sputum containers.* c) Food*. Fruit, soft drinks, sweets, biscuits. d) Other articles. Books, magazines, stationery, photographs, cigarettes, t

14、obacco, ashtray, toys and games, occupational therapy materials, waste container*, handbag or purse, wallet, watch, water jug and tumbler*, flower vase, spectacle case, hearing aid, paper tissues*, knitting bag. NOTENo one patient would need all these items. Some items therefore may be kept on the t

15、op of the locker, while others may be kept in or on fittings on the outside of the locker. 3.2 Although toilet articles are normally kept outside the locker and although it is recommended that items of food should be kept in a separate container, it is considered that there should be adequate ventil

16、ation provided as part of the design of the locker. 3.3 The compartment for the accommodation of dressing gown and spare night clothing shall be in the lower part of the locker. Hanging space for day clothing shall be provided. 3.4 Some degree of reversibility to enable a locker to be used with equa

17、l convenience at either side of the bed is desirable. 3.5 Although the value of a fillet on the top surface of the locker to assist in preventing objects from falling off the locker is appreciated, it is considered that this advantage is outweighed by the increased difficulty of cleaning and the inc

18、onvenience caused by fillets if the top of the locker is used for resting trays or writing notes. 3.6 Lockers shall in general be mounted upon castors, although there may be special cases when some other supports (e.g.skids) are necessary. If castors are fitted they shall be of not less than40mm nom

19、inal wheel diameter and shall comply with the requirements of BS2099-1. 3.7 The lockers shall be of plain design so that cleaning is simplified and dust traps are kept to a minimum. NOTE 1Hospital authorities are generally opposed to the keeping of bedpans, urine bottles, toilet rolls and bathing bl

20、ankets in bedside lockers on grounds of hygiene, and provision for these in the locker is strongly deprecated. NOTE 2The provision of a seat as an integral part of a locker is deprecated. 4 Dimensions and tolerances 4.1 The overall dimensions of the lockers shall be as specified by the purchaser wit
