Other Collection Site Requirements

In addition to the security concerns listed in the previous slide, a collection site must have:

  1. A restroom for the donor to have privacy while providing the urine specimen. A single commode restroom with a full-length privacy door is preferred. However, a multi-stall restroom with a partial-length door is acceptable. Both facilities should be large enough to accommodate two individuals in the event of an observed collection.
  2. A source of water for hand washing. It is preferred that it be external to the restroom where urination occurs.
  3. A suitable clean surface for the collector to use as a work area and for completing the required paperwork.
