The Journey of the Red Bag
Versapak Red Bag Pathway Scheme -The Royal Borough of Greenwich/Bexley
Following the successful pilot scheme in the London Boroughs of Sutton & Kingston, Versapak, in collaboration with the Commissioning Manager for South East London CCG, delivered tools and education to drive the message. Stephanie Watts commented saying:
"Thanks to Versapak, we have been able to promote the Red Bag Pathway at event stalls in hospitals within our borough."

Hear what residents have to say about the Red Bag Pathway
With plenty of room for clothing and a smaller pocket to hold the patient's personal items such as medication, identification or jewellery, the Red Bag is fitted with a tamper evident sealing system. When secured with Versapak's T2 Security Seal you can be sure that the contents can be transported in a tamper evident manner. The seal acts as a deterrent against anyone tampering with the contents.
