Hi everyone,
A couple of years ago, we had a toaster oven in our unit. One night someone accidentally left a pot holder under it and it caught fire. After that incident, ALL toaster ovens AND toasters were BANNED from patient care areas. It is really inconvenient for our small OB unit because our patients often ask for toast. The only way to get toast is to go down to the cafeteria for it which takes us off of the unit. How many of you out there have a "toaster" ban? Just curious....
