Hi everyone. Happy Friday! We are in the process of reviewing our morgue policies, and the question about ownership has come up. How many of you are responsible for maintaining the morgue? Some hospitals I know have Security in charge, while others say Nursing or the Lab. Who is responsible for repairs, ordering new stretchers, hoists and refrigeration units? If the refrigeration goes down, what is your back-up plan? Do you have an agreement with another hospital, or Medical Examiner? Do you use refrigerated trucks? What is in your Disaster Policy when extra body storage is needed? Thanks in advance for all of your responses.
