Course Description

Keeping a clean healthcare setting differs from cleaning a typical office or home. When it comes to preventing the spread of disease, nothing less than pristine conditions in healthcare institutions will do. Hospital sanitation requires strict protocols. Proper hygiene can help prevent gastroenteritis, COVID-19, colds and flu. Keeping good personal cleanliness will also help to prevent the transmission of sickness.

This health and safety course explains how surfaces in healthcare facilities must be cleaned and disinfected regularly to lower the risk of transmission even further. This standard is important because the rapid spread of microorganisms in healthcare settings is caused by frequent physical contact between medical workers, patients and their families. Healthcare workers can help prevent the spread of illness by constantly washing their hands before treating patients, wearing protective gear when needed and taking other basic safety procedures. This training course lays out the basics of health and safety to provide a solid understanding of the primary cleaning and disinfection procedures methods such as decontamination and sanitation.
