6. UNIT DESIGN

7. DESIGN AND LAYOUT Points to be considered in establishing a new PICU: The first consideration in establishing a new PICU is to document the need for such a unit in a given set up. Since PICU is an integral part of health care services being offered in a particular set up, an assessment of its need should be primarily based on the existing patient load and type of illness cared for.

8. Availability of committed and appropriately trained staff, and adequate resources are other important considerations. An institution providing paediatric intensive care should be capable of providing 24 hours accessibility to a broad range of paediatric sub specialities as these are essential for optimal care.

15. Location: A PICU should be located adjacent to or within direct access to paediatric emergency room, children wards, radiology department, operating and recovery rooms. Transport of patients to and from the unit for diagnostic and therapeutic procedures should be minimum.

16. Space: Adequate provision of space is essential. Approximately 20 meter square space should be available per patient with 3-3.5 meters separating each patient. Enough floor space should be provided around the head end of the bed to assemble necessary personnel and equipment for resuscitation.

17. In addition, space should be provided for: Nursing and clerical activity Doctor’s duty room Nurse’s locker room Conference room Offices of nursing supervisor and physician Waiting room Laboratory Storage area for equipments Supplies Linen and patient belongings A clean and soiled work room Toilets
