Sizing and Closure Formats
Belongings bags are sized by contents. Personal effects bags hold clothing and small items collected at admission, admission and transfer bags carry a larger volume with reinforced handles for moving belongings between units, and cushioned non-woven bags protect eyeglasses, dentures, and hearing aids. Drawstring closures cinch the bag for carry and identification, while snap and handle closures speed access. Printed property graphics identify the bag as patient belongings during transport and storage.
Patient belongings bags are a high-turn consumable tied directly to admission volume, used on every admission and again at transfer and discharge. Because usage tracks census closely, materials management and nursing units benefit from case pricing and standing orders that hold supply continuity across admission and discharge points.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between a belongings bag and a transfer bag?
A belongings bag is a drawstring plastic bag printed with patient property graphics, used at admission to collect and identify a patient's clothing and personal items. A transfer bag is a larger-capacity bag with reinforced handles for moving those belongings between units during transfers and at discharge. Belongings bags focus on identification and collection, while transfer bags focus on carry capacity and durability.
Are cushioned bags available for eyeglasses and dentures?
Yes. The catalog stocks non-woven and padded bags sized for small personal items such as eyeglasses, dentures, and hearing aids. These bags protect fragile items during a stay and transport and are kept with the larger belongings bag. Snap and zip closures keep small items secure. They are ordered alongside standard belongings bags for admission kits.
What closures and print options are stocked?
Belongings and utility bags are stocked with drawstring, snap, tie-top, and cushioned handle closures. Belongings bags are printed with standard patient property or personal belongings graphics for identification, and plain utility bags are available for supply and specimen transport. Capacities range from small personal effects bags to larger admission and transport formats.
Can hospitals order patient belongings bags in bulk?
Yes. Patient belongings and utility bags are stocked in case quantities for hospitals, surgery centers, long-term care facilities, outpatient clinics, and licensed distributors. Because usage tracks admission volume, belongings bags are a common standing order line for materials management. Contact our procurement team for case pricing and standing order setup tied to census.
What patient belongings products should be in a facility formulary?
A facility belongings formulary typically includes drawstring printed belongings bags for every admission, larger transfer bags for unit moves and discharge, cushioned effects bags for eyeglasses and dentures, and plain utility bags for supply and specimen transport.
