Classification of Scales

As stated by the Department of Health:

There are two classes of weighing equipment used in healthcare premises:  

• Class III should be used in healthcare premises for medication, treatment, and monitoring. •
• Class IV (less accurate domestic type scales) may be in use, but should only be used for monitoring/recording patients’ weights in their notes in GP consulting rooms, community settings (peripatetic visits) and nursing homes.

Any Class IV scales being used for medication, treatment, diagnosis or monitoring should be withdrawn for use and replaced with the Class III type. Class IV scales should be clearly labelled to indicate they are not suitable for use in calculating medication dosage. All weighing scales should be checked to confirm they meet with the class relevant to their clinical location.
