Patient's facilities regularly end up breaking prohibitions (7)
I believe the answer is:
bedpans
'patient's facilities' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both man-made objects as well as being plural nouns.
Perhaps you can see a link between them that I don't see?
'regularly end up breaking prohibitions' is the wordplay.
'regularly' means one should take alternating letters (regularly take one letter, leave next etc.).
'breaking' is an insertion indicator.
'prohibitions' becomes 'bans' ('ban' can be a synonym of 'prohibition').
'end'+'up'='endup'
The alternating letters of 'endup' are 'edp'.
'edp' inserted into 'bans' is 'BEDPANS'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Another definition for bedpans that I've seen is " hospital utensils".)
