How much capacity must a facility have for laundry/linen?

Enough to process 5-day supply based on 10 lbs/dry laundry per bed/per day
Enough to process 7-day supply based on 10 lbs/dry laundry per bed/per day
Enough to process 10-day supply based on 10 lbs/dry laundry per bed/per day
Enough to process 12-day supply based on 10 lbs/dry laundry per bed/per day

The correct answer is: Enough to process 5-day supply based on 10 lbs/dry laundry per bed/per day

A facility must have enough capacity to process a 5-day supply of laundry and linen based on the standard of 10 lbs/dry laundry per bed/per day. This means that the facility should be able to handle the daily laundry needs of the number of beds in the facility multiplied by 5 days. Option B, C, and D are all greater than a 5-day supply and could potentially lead to overcapacity and waste of resources. Option B would provide an extra 2 days worth of laundry capacity, while Option C and D would provide an additional 5 and 7 days respectively. Therefore, Option A is the most efficient and cost-effective choice, providing enough capacity to handle the expected laundry needs while also minimizing potential waste.
