The objective of the project was to review the existing laundry production units in NHS Wales against industry best practice guidance. The three key objectives to this review were:

to look at our existing five laundry sites in Wales and review their current condition and performance
to see if there are any gaps which would prevent laundry services achieving and complying with the new standard for Linen Services (BS14065)
to consider any recommendations, based on evidence from the review, to ensure laundry services are sustainable and fit for purpose in the future.

Q2. Who is included in the scope of the review?

The scope of the project included all five NHS Wales laundry production units;

Ysbyty Glan Clwyd Laundry Services – Betsi Cadwaladr University Health Board
Glangwili General Hospital Laundry Service – Hywel Dda University Health Board
Llansamlet Laundry Service – Swansea Bay University Health Board
Church Village (old East Glamorgan Hospital) Laundry Service – Cwm Taf Morgannwg University Health Board
Llanfrechfa Grange ‘Green Vale’ Laundry Service – Aneurin Bevan University Health Board.

Q3. Why are we being consulted now?

The detailed review and data analysis has now reached a point in the process where it has reviewed all of the data and some conclusions are emerging. This will potentially form the basis of options going forward.
