Date published:

The Waiting, Sub provides a satellite area for visitors, families and patients to wait within a unit, close to procedure/imaging rooms, consult rooms or offices.
The size of satellite waiting areas can vary depending on service requirements; add 1.2m2 per additional person and allow 1.5m2 for additional wheelchair spaces as required.
Additional Considerations:
- • Wall protection is recommended to protect wall linings and finishes from damage due to movement of loose furniture.
- • An operational model for responding to calls from staff/patients will be needed to support the inclusion of a nurse call system and is to be determined based on service requirements.
- • Hand hygiene facilities, such as alcohol-based hand rub, should be provided in line with local infection control policies.
