Ensuring hospitals are clean and safe is an essential component in the provision of effective healthcare. It is fundamental in assisting patients to recover and help in the prevention and/or control of the spread of healthcare associated infections. A clean hospital environment is paramount to all staff and patients. Whilst this is important from an aesthetic perspective, it is also of significance with regard to the minimisation of risks, including the incidence of healthcare associated infection.

What are healthcare associated infections?

Healthcare associated infections are infections that people occasionally pick up while being treated for something else. The most common ones are MRSA (Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus Aureus) and C. diff (Clostridium difficile). Healthy people are very unlikely to catch them.

Taking Hospital Cleanliness Seriously

In order to ensure the highest standards of cleanliness are maintained throughout the Healthcare sector, care must be taken to:

• Work in partnership with Matrons and Ward Sisters to develop procedures for their individual areas of activity.
• Setting clear local standards and policies and keeping cleanliness high on the hospital agenda.
• Ensure cleaning routines should be clear, agreed and well-publicised.
• Cleaning activity should be part of the ward routine not an intrusion into it.
• Cleaning routines must be flexible to respond to the changing needs of a particular area or ward.
• Cleaners must be part of the ward team.
• Use the correct hospital cleaning product.
