Cleaner Healthcare Facilities Reduce Healthcare associated infections

Healthcare-associated infections (HAI) are a costly and unwanted problem for health care facilities today. According to the CDC, approximately 1 out of every 20 hospitalized patients will contract an HAI. HAIs are also a public health issue; adding approximately $30 billion to U.S. health costs each year. As a result, the prevention and reduction of HAIs is a top priority for not only health care providers, but for the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) as well.

It is scientifically proven that rigorous and regular environmental cleaning, as part of an environmental infection control program, is associated with major decreases in HAIs. Training of environmental services staff on how to clean more thoroughly is paramount to the success of the program. 

Identify High Touch Surfaces

The most common transmission of all viruses is airborne (sneezing and coughing). The second most common transmission is through close contact with an infected person (shaking hands, etc.). Viruses may also be transmitted by contacting a contaminated surface and then rubbing your eyes, ears, nose, or mouth.

It is important to assess and document High Touch Surfaces (HTS) in your facility.  Even with the best hand hygiene practices, contaminated surfaces can expose hands to potential pathogens, which can be transmitted to other surfaces and people.
