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.
自从医院实施一项计划，回收那些不小心随脏床单一起被扔进洗衣滑道的物品以来，已节省了约47,000美元的更换成本。剪刀、热水袋、橡胶枕头，以及各种昂贵的手术器械和夹子，现在都放在医院洗衣房分拣处的盒子里。
