Equipment and Supplies:
Nurses who are aware of location of equipment and supplies do give accurate delivery of patient care without delay and wastage of time and energy for collecting equipment. Moreover handling of equipment should not consume a large proportion of total time. Accessibility of equipment is more important even though it means duplication of material in more than one place. Another important point for each ward sister should remember is that equipment should be located in the same place on architecturally similar wards in order to prevent loss of time for nurses who move from ward to ward
