    Proper cleaning of healthcare facilities is imperative to keeping patients, staff, and visitors free of infection from harmful diseases.  Healthcare facilities are filled with all types of germs naturally because of the patients that are there for treatment, and the processes that are necessary to heal these infections.  Subsequently, those who clean these facilities will inevitably come in contact with these germs, so it is necessary to know how to properly disinfect the facilities.

    Employees who clean healthcare facilities properly are not only doing so for their own safety, but for those around them as well.  As previously stated, healthcare facilities are hubs for germs and infectious diseases.  If these germs are not properly disinfected then a situation could occur where a lot of people get sick due to negligence.  This could result in hefty lawsuits which all could have been avoided if the facility had been properly disinfected.

     This is why the correct guidelines must be followed by employees who clean these facilities.  MSDS's must be used to properly deal with any hazardous chemicals.  PPE must be used to keep staff from bringing any germs home.  Lastly, the proper techniques of wiping down surfaces and restrooms will keep everyone safe and the buildings clean.

    The benefits of having your carpet cleaned are not just limited to having it look better.  Carpet cleaning when done correctly and with the right products can not only bring out the beauty of your carpet but can also help in getting rid of stains, allergens, old smells and dirt.  We walk on our carpets everyday but often give it little thought in the cleaning process other than the regular vacuuming.

    Having your carpet cleaned regularly either yearly or every six months, can extend the life of your carpet.  Having an individual who is certified in carpet cleaning helps to ensure that proper products and procedures are done during the process.  Having an unqualified individual clean your carpet could spell disaster for your carpet and expensive costs to either have the carpet cleaned correctly or replaced.

    Medical cleaning employees and staff should educate themselves on prevention of contamination of bloodborne pathogens. Some ways to stay knowledgeable of preventative methods are by reading the CDC website, OSHA's Bloodborne Pathogen Standard (29 CFR 1910.1030), as well as the Company's Cleaning Policy and Procedure. 

    Some bloodborne pathogens consist of, but are not limited to HIV (Human Immunodifficiency Virus), HBV (Hepatitis B Virus), & HCV (Hepatitis C Virus). These are the most common bloodborne pathogens in which can become deadly once exposed. The reason being is there is no cure, however there is medicine that can contain the spread of the virus. Without proper treatment, these pathogens attack the immune system, ultimately causing organ failure. The CDC website is constantly updated with information on bloodborne pathogens and ways to prevent the spread of such pathogens. OSHA provides information and resources that overall are in place to help keep workers safe from exposure to bloodborne pathogens Employers form their cleaning & prevention policy and procedures based on OSHA's guidelines.

    Remaining educated on ways to prevent exposure to bloodborne pathogens and other disease and infections can ultimately prevent the spread of disease. It is important to take care of your health and be mindful that just because you can't see it, doesn't mean it isn't there. It is also important to stay up to date with policies and procedures since they may change as new pathogens emerge.

    Health Care facilities being properly cleaned is critical to staff and patients. Properly cleaning healthcare facilities are important because the U.S center for Disease Control and Prevention states that there are nearly 1.7 million cases of Health Care Associated Infections. 1/20 people who end up in the hospital will contract a health care associated infection.

    Cleaning of health care facilities are mainly performed for medical reasons. There are at risk patients. The people who are responsible for properly cleaning healthcare facilities should practice proper hand hygiene. They should also be knowledgeable of proper cleaning and disinfecting techniques for the environment they work in. Education and training of those who work in a healthcare facility will increase compliance and will reduce the cases of HAIs. OSHA maintains strict cleaning standards for all healthcare facilities. When cleaning properly infections and even death can be prevented.

    I have been so excited about my cleaning business, I have has my business for about 1 year now but also been in the cleaning business for about 4 years. This is business that I can say that I enjoy because of the people that I meet all over Houston and out of Houston. I love each and every benefit that comes with it especially passing the IJSCA Residential Cleaning Certification.

    After being laid off from 3 jobs within a 2 year span, also have a daughter things got kind of scary for me. So I took the time out to do my research on how to start a business, then went into looking into different businesses. I wanted something that I was comfortable with and knowing that I am able to handle everything within that business. That is when I really looked into the cleaning business. Everyone knows how to clean something, but I wanted to take the extra step into knowing the ropes and in/out of the cleaning business.

    I didn't want to start a business just for the money is something that I know I can do and succeed at it. This is a business to where I am able to meet people and let them see what a wonderful job I can do and meet their needs. I went into furthering my business and getting all the right training, certifications, and credentials needed. I signed up with IJCSA to get certified and trained with passing each certification course you will receive your Certificate. I made the right choice of taking the Residential Cleaning Certification, because I will have the knowledge of what the do's and don't of cleaning a residential home.

    The importance of proper clean up procedures cannot be expressed enough, regarding blood born pathogens.  By  following universal precautions we can do our part in cutting down the spread of various infections. We run the very real risk of contracting something and never knowing until later when symptoms have finally shown, often times putting our loved ones, co-workers and community at risk.

    By wearing appropriate protective equipment such as disposable gloves, goggles, or face shields.  Using appropriate cleaning, sanitizing/disinfection procedures, with the right cleaning products.  And by disposing of material appropriately such as needles in a sharps container, we can do much to limit our and others exposure is blood born pathogens by using universal precautions.

    In today's world it has become even more important to follow these simple guidelines. there are so many different ways that an individual can become ill.  By having a virus get to our mucus glands in our nose and mouth to touching contaminated biological matter. We as an industry must be ever more vigilant in our practices, and set the example for others to follow in today's crazy world.
