Stores in the Hospital

Stores are crucial for hospitals and industrial undertakings, managing materials like consumables, medical disposables, and spare parts. They ensure a balanced flow of supplies, inspect and issue them, and handle scrap disposal. Hospital stores include medical, drug, surgical, general, equipment, linen, stationery, dietary, engineering, and condemnation stores. They should be away from patient areas and have specific infrastructure like storage areas, staff rooms, and special store rooms.
