I have two questions regarding the anteroom and what is best according to USP 797 and 800.
1- is it preferable to locate the sink, for hand hygiene, inside the anteroom or before entering the anteroom (in the receiving or working area) to minimize contamination inside the anteroom.
2- in the pharmacy layout design, should the anteroom be the first room to encounter when entering the facility, thus giving access to both work area and buffer area. Or should it be located between the work area and the buffer area, meaning to get to the anteroom you have to pass through the work area.
