Download the VA as PDF<\/a>Download<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

How patient property is handled must be regulated. Locking in the patient's room, depositing in a safe room, limitation of liability.
Protection of employees against unjustified accusations of misappropriation.
Regulation for replacement in the event of loss (e.g. prostheses, aids).
Duty of care for phases in which patients are unable to look after their own property.
Verification and approval of treatment products brought in (medical devices and medicines)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Application<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

All valuables such as teeth, glasses and clothing must be documented and labelled with patient labels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Description of the process<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Personal items<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Safekeeping form (form for patient property) must be completed by the carer on every patient admission.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Certificate of deposit consists of three copies:
White carbon copy = original, remains at the patient's place or after transfer \/ discharge in red folder<\/p>\n\n\n\n

green carbon copy = remains at the patient's place or after transfer \/ discharge in red folder<\/p>\n\n\n\n

blue carbon copy = original, remains at the patient's place, is given to the ward or patient upon transfer\/discharge against signature<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The custody slip is filed on the care sheet (transparent film on the right-hand side)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Items brought in at a later date are added to the deposit slip according to date, type of item and signature of the responsible carer<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Valuables that are handed over to relatives during the stay must be completed on the safekeeping slip with the date, type of item and signature of the responsible carer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A lockable safe is located under the blood gas analyser (BGA) in the small unclean work area<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Deposit valuables in the compartment mentioned above, according to the bed number When the patient is transferred, the patient's belongings and a blue carbon copy are handed over against signature. The signature of the patient or the collecting carer must be on all three copies. The original is filed with the green carbon copy in the red folder above the BGA device after the valuables have been handed over.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The key for the safe deposit box is also in the red folder
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Valuables<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Reference to secure storage in the administration
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Aids (dentures, hearing aids, etc.)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

When recording, it must be noted for all aids whether they were brought along or not. It is not enough to simply list the items you have brought with you! The master data sheet must also indicate which aids were not brought along! On discharge from hospital, the patient, relatives or transport carers must confirm that the aids have been brought with them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The aids must be checked for proper function. If there are any doubts, the medical technician must evaluate the aid.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The aid must be approved for use in the hospital.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
