[Thanassi, Wendy]

All I am aware of for infection control is wipeable surfaces, like
vinyl....

Subject: [EXTERNAL] [MCOH-EH] Furniture in Patient Care Areas

 

I am looking at purchasing some new furniture for patient care areas in
my clinic.  I have looked on the CDC website for Infection Control
guidelines for purchasing such furniture.  I cannot find any such
guidelines.

 

If you have Infection Control guidelines for selecting furniture for
patient care areas, I would appreciate your sharing them with me.

 

Thank you.
