Wash hands after finishing with antibacterial soap and in certain areas avoid eating, drinking ,smoking or applying balm. If for any reason any contact exists, the cleaner should inform his supervisor and together report to the medical center or if his working alone he contacts directly somebody from the medical center to make a report.

Bloodborne pathogens are infectious microorganisms in human blood that can cause disease in humans.  The CDC estimates that 5.6 million workers in the health care industry and related occupations are at risk of occupational exposure to bloodborne pathogens, including human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), hepatitis B virus (HBV), hepatitis C virus (HCV), and others. All occupational exposure to blood or other potentially infectious materials (OPIM) places workers at risk for infection from bloodborne pathogens. OSHA defines blood to mean human blood, human blood components, and products made from human blood.  

Cleaning employees and staff are in the group of workers that are at risk of exposure to blood borne pathogens. Cleaning workers are at risk wile cleaning bathrooms, patient rooms, surgery rooms, removing trash, etc. One of the most important things that employers needs to train their cleaning employees is how to avoid sharps injuries.

Even do studies show that as many as one-third of all sharps injuries occur during disposal and nurses are particularly at risk, as they sustain the most needlestick injuries. Cleaning personnel needs to pay special attention to this specially when removing garbage, replacing the linen in beds or handling laundry.

Every employer that have cleaning personnel or staff at risk should have all employees train in accordance with OSHA's Bloodborne Pathogens Standard (29 CFR 1910.1030) as amended pursuant to the 2000 Needlestick Safety and Prevention Act, OSHA safety standards for bloodborne pathogens. It’s the employer responsibility to provide proper training and safety equipment to all employees, but it is the worker who needs to pay special attention wile working to prevent sharps injuries and avoid contact with bloodborne pathogens and prevent any contamination.

  An important aspect to civilised society is the demand to maintain certain levels of cleanliness. To obtain a clean and safe environment, cleaners should be aware of bloodborne pathogens and the steps necessary to avoid contamination or exposure.

Bloodborne pathogens are pathogenic microorganisms that are present in human blood and cause diseases such as HBV Hepatitis B Virus or HIV Human Immunodeficiency Virus. In order to reduce exposure certain Universal Precautions should be considered. Precautions such as the proper use of equipment like gloves,disinfectant, or color coded or properly labeled disposal containers, as well as the disinfection/ disposal of infected areas or equipment. 

In the unfortunate incident of exposure, cleaning staff should be aware of their employer's control plan and notify OSHA immediately. OSHA is the occupational safety and health administration. Established in 1970, OSHA's mission is to provide safe and healthy working conditions. Those exposed should monitor their health for signs of HBV a liver disease with symptoms including but not limited to, fatigue, abdominal pain, loss of appetite, jaundice vomiting or diarrhea. Another common infectious disease is HIV. Signs of HIV are fatigue, flulike symptoms, rashes or swollen glands. These disease may not be evident for years to come and continued vigilance is advised.

In closing, the importance of understanding and obtaining a safe and clean environment is achievable by educating those in the field. OSHA's safety guidelines are thorough and the risk of exposure is minimized when universal precautions are maintained.
