    Author: Anthony MF, Wilson G.
    Journal: Hospitals; 1978 May 16; 52(10):119-20, 122. PubMed ID: 640603.
    Abstract:
    About +47,000 in replacement costs have been saved since the hospital instituted a plan to retrieve materials that are inadvertantly deposited in laundry chutes with soiled linens. Scissors, hot-water bottles, and rubber pillows, as well as a variety of expensive surgical instruments and clamps, are now placed in boxes at sorting sites at the hospital's laundry.
