Layout description of the isolation ward for infectious diseases

(1) Strict division and rational arrangement 

Isolation wards are usually divided into contaminated, semi-contaminated and clean areas.
Clean areas - living and living facilities for medical and logistical support staff and basic logistical support rooms.
The basic logistical support rooms include a pharmacy, central supply room, ethylene oxide sterilization room, various stores, laundry, and kitchen.
Isolation area (including contaminated and semi-contaminated areas) - Arrangements for technical clinic areas, examination, X-ray, CT, and other medical technology departments, suspect wards, confirmation wards, intensive care units, etc. Set up, it should be located in this area. 

(2) Organising the flow of people and logistics 

Organizing the movement of people and logistics is the primary prerequisite for building an isolation ward for infectious diseases.
In hospitals treating patients with infectious diseases, clean and contaminated routes for people, logistics and vehicles must be strictly managed.
Clean and contaminated routes are separated from each other and do not cross each other.
Suspected and confirmed wards should be separated: clean and contaminated routes must be separated and the layout of rooms should follow the reception examination (medical technology department) - treatment (wards) - care (ICU) flow.
Medical staff arranges their work areas according to the workflow of cleaning half of the contaminated areas and one contaminated area.
A thorough dressing place must be available each time a level 1 area is entered.
Medical staff and patients should use different channels.
Area staff uses the medical staff working corridor and the clean area of the ward corridor (semi-contaminated area).
Medical staff must pass through a mandatory hygienic access room when entering and leaving the ward.
The access rooms should include: changing rooms, showers, toilets, and other hygienic facilities.
Persons entering and leaving the ward from the ward corridor must pass through a buffer room, which should be equipped with flowing water hand washing facilities.
If possible, patients enter the ward through the outer corridors (contaminated passageways). 

(3) Isolation ward facilities 

Normally, a maximum of 20 wards per nursing unit (ward) is recommended.
Of these, 2-3 per room for suspected illness and 1 per room for confirmed patients.
Oxygen, suction, and other bedside treatment facilities as well as call and intercom facilities should be established in the wards: there should be sufficient space for x-ray machines, ventilators, and other equipment at the bedside.
Wards are equipped with separate toilets, toilets, showers, hand washing facilities, etc. 

(4) Food and drug delivery 

There are double closed delivery windows in the corridors of the medical staff and each ward for the delivery of food, medication, etc. to the patients: a clean nutritional kitchen provides meals for the patients After I work, they are sent to each ward through the working corridors.
Meal trolleys do not enter the wards, there is a pass-through window in the boiling water dining room to receive the trolleys.
To send them, attempts are made to use disposable cutlery. 

(5) Contaminated waste disposal 

Patient sewage and other contaminated waste is collected and sealed through the contaminated aisle in each ward in the ward and then sent to the sewage treatment room for concentration and then transferred to the Soil Incineration Protection Facility or the Centralised Medical Waste Disposal Centre for incineration.
