How You Can Implement Medical Cleaning Practices Into Other Residential & Commercial Cleaning Situations

04 May 2023 4:51 PM | Deleted user

Medical cleaning practices can be implemented into other residential and commercial cleaning situations to help maintain a clean and healthy environment. Here are some ways to do this:


1. Use hospital-grade disinfectants: Hospital-grade disinfectants are effective against a wide range of pathogens and can be used to disinfect surfaces in residential and commercial settings. Look for EPA-approved disinfectants with a broad spectrum of efficacy.


2. Focus on high-touch areas: In medical facilities, high-touch areas like doorknobs, light switches, and bedrails are frequently cleaned and disinfected. Similarly, in other settings, high-touch areas like keyboards, phones, and countertops should be a focus of cleaning and disinfection.


3. Use proper cleaning techniques: Proper cleaning techniques are important in medical settings and also in other environments. Use microfiber cloths and mops to trap dirt and debris, and follow proper cleaning protocols to prevent cross-contamination.


4. Train cleaning staff: In medical settings, cleaning staff are required to undergo regular training on infection control and cleaning techniques. Similarly, in other settings, cleaning staff should be trained on proper cleaning and disinfection practices to ensure a clean and healthy environment.


5. Encourage hand hygiene: Hand hygiene is critical in medical settings, and it is also important in other settings to prevent the spread of germs and viruses. Encourage employees and visitors to wash their hands frequently, and provide hand sanitizer in high-traffic areas.


By implementing medical cleaning practices into other residential and commercial cleaning situations, you can help maintain a clean and healthy environment for employees, customers, and visitors.
