The practice of disinfecting involves destroying or deactivating disease-causing bacteria and viruses on surfaces, whereas sanitizing will generally only reduce the number of bacteria on surfaces to acceptable levels and is ineffective against some viruses. While sanitizing is generally effective enough for low risk surfaces such as floors and benchtops, disinfecting is preferred for treating surfaces at a higher risk of contamination – especially those found in treatment areas in healthcare facilities. Such facilities are at risk of having a detrimental impact on the health and wellbeing of patients if their practice is not expertly treated by cleaning professionals.
Healthcare facilities of all varieties have the same goal: to provide an appropriate level of service to patients safely – furthering their wellbeing – whilst minimising the risk of hazards and potential litigation to the facility, its staff, and practitioners. Therefore, it is imperative that healthcare facilities maintain high levels of cleanliness and consistently meet health and safety regulations – ensuring their duty of care to patients, staff, and practitioners. But how do you know you’re meeting all the necessary cleaning requirements for your Melbourne-based healthcare facility? That’s what we’re here for.
