PPE & Disposables Checklist for Care Homes and Clinics
Share
Between residents, patients and staff turnover, care homes and clinics go through disposable protective items faster than most people expect. Here's a quick checklist of the basics.
Protection & hygiene
- Surgical gowns — fluid-resistant protection for staff during personal care or clinical procedures
- Mob caps and shower caps — hair coverage for hygiene routines and bathing assistance
- Shoe covers — contamination control between rooms or clinical areas
Bedding & surfaces
- Disposable bed sheets — fast turnover between residents or patients without laundering delays
- Couch covers and pillow covers — single-use protection for examination and treatment couches
Keeping stock consistent
Running out of any of these mid-week usually means an emergency card order at retail price. A trade credit account with a set reorder schedule avoids that, and keeps the same product consistently in stock rather than substituting whatever's available locally.
