Objective
Ensure the Quiet Room in the Healthcare Facility is cleaned to the highest standards, maintaining a hygienic and calming environment for patients and staff, with a focus on infection control and compliance with Australian cleaning standards.
Cleaning Methods
Ready the cleaning trolley, ensuring it is equipped with colour-coded cleaning cloths and the suitable cleaning agents.
Utilise a HEPA filter vacuum cleaner to vacuum the carpeted area, thereby minimising airborne particles.
Begin dusting all surfaces with a microfibre cloth, starting from the highest point and working downwards.
Empty the rubbish bin, replace the liner, and sanitise the bin's surface.
Mop the hard floor using a damp mop and a neutral pH cleaning solution to avoid causing damage to the flooring.
Sanitise high-touch surfaces using a hospital-grade disinfectant, ensuring appropriate contact time for maximum effectiveness.
Clean windows and glass surfaces with a glass cleaner to ensure a streak-free finish.
Conduct a final inspection to ensure the room is clean, tidy, and free from odour.
