Environmental cleaning in both commercial and health facilities is often neglected – because of policy failure!

“It isn’t going to clean itself”, so “it” is often left to professionals, supervisors, or managers, who have professional duties and functions to perform. Or worse still, “it,” just does not get done.

Imagine your health facility: busy with patients coming and going and busy medical professionals rushing around. But lurking unseen are tiny villains – microbes! They can hitch a ride on surfaces, equipment, even hands, causing infections that can be serious, even deadly.

That is where infection prevention and control (IPC) policies come in, acting like shields against these microscopic villains!

Think of these policies as your personalised battle plan to keep patients, staff, and everyone safe. They outline how to tackle those microbes, from basic handwashing techniques to proper cleaning procedures for medical equipment. Every healthcare setting, from bustling hospitals to cozy clinics, needs its own unique battle plan based on its specific germ risks.

That is where the experts come in, like IPC warriors armed with knowledge. They will help you craft the perfect policy, ensuring everyone’s on the same page, from medical professionals to receptionists, about how to outsmart those sneaky microbes.

But do not worry, crafting these policies does not have to be a solo mission! Sanifield Infection Prevention and Control experts are here to help, guiding healthcare facilities in creating effective IPC plans. They will assess the specific risks, and work with you to develop and implement functionally engageable IPC plans.

It is not just about keeping things clean, it is about safeguarding the health of patients, staff, and everyone who walks through the doors. Remember, in the healthcare setting, every tiny detail counts in the battle against microbes!
