Hospital Hygiene

Hygiene is a top priority for all that work in a hospital, clinic or medical centre. It has to be. With so many cases of infections and outbreaks in hospitals across the country all healthcare trusts have had to take a closer look at their cleaning regimes and standards.

There is also the safety aspect of poor cleaning. There are still wet floors to be seen in many hospitals after being mopped manually, using water that's not been changed when it should, and no warning signs advising people of the wet area. A combination of poorly trained cleaning staff, and cleaning methods that date back decades are contributing to hygiene and safety issues in many hospitals.

The floor specifications in hospitals state that surfaces of resin flooring don't promote bacteria. There are other requirements such as acoustic damping for quiet areas, non slip surfaces, and carpets that are stain and bleach resistant.

Clean Sweep UK has cleaning equipment for hire that is ideal for the various types of flooring found in hospitals.

Along with the equipment we also provide training for the operatives of the machines which are essential if you want the job done safely and the end result to be of a high standard.
