Bay - Resuscitation Trolley

The bay should be located close to a Staff Station. Rapid access to the trolley and from this bay to patient areas is essential.

Additional Design Considerations:

• Requirements for specialised resuscitation trolleys should be considered (e.g. specific trolleys are required for paediatric and neonatal departments and non-magnetic trolleys are required for some medical imaging modalities).
• If a department requires more than one type of resuscitation trolley to be accommodated in their bay (e.g. both adult and paediatric trolleys) additional area will be required.
• Additional equipment, such as ECG machines, may be accommodated in this bay in some departments.
• The bay shall be a minimum depth of 800mm to ensure that equipment does not impede adjacent corridor circulation.
• A patient slide may need to be readily available if the resuscitation trolley is required and may be provided within this bay.
