Hello-

We have had a few back sprain/strains due to nursing departments over filling our linen bags. When housekeeping goes to pull the dirty linen, they are over filled and some of the linen is wet from the patient showering and staff using blankets to soak up the water in the bathrooms. Can you tell me how your facilities handle linen? I am looking into getting rid of the hampers and large bags and only offering smaller bags so that they can not be filled as full. Does anyone else have any suggestions or tips for what you see at your facility?
