How is soiled laundry dropped off?

• A. In shared, Permeable bags
• B. In individual, Impervious bags
• C. In paper bags
• D. In a plastic bin

Answer: (B)

Containment to prevent exposure is the key idea. Soiled laundry should be dropped off in a dedicated, impermeable bag that is used for each individual and then sealed. This creates a leak- and tear-resistant barrier, preventing liquids and contaminants from escaping and avoiding cross-contamination between residents. Shared permeable bags would allow leaks, paper bags aren’t reliable for moisture, and a plastic bin alone doesn’t provide a sealed barrier. So, individual, impervious bags are the appropriate choice for safe drop-off.
