Good, except consider: Sinks should be cleaned at same time as bathroom. Floor mopping should start at outer areas then inward to center where patient bed and commode were, then change mop head and mop out to door. Dirtiest areas and surfaces (floors, furniture and equipment) are located about 4-6 feet out from patient bed and bedside commode plus the entire bathroom--these are areas that should be done last just before the floor (which is universally considered contaminated--and again, more contaminated where patient, the commode or toilet is). You have to look at what types of organisms are likely to be in what areas as much as what order to clean--organisms associated with feces are resistant to most cleaners, you should be using a bleach or similar in bathrooms or to clean commodes (some hydrogen peroxide formulations will kill enteric viruses but not C. difficile). Also, all EPA rated hospital cleaner/disinfectants require specific wet/kill (also called dwell or contact) times meaning the entire surface must remain wet for a set amount of time per the manufacturer to kill the organisms the cleaner/disinfectant is rated to kill. I saw people in the video cleaning but no one watching if the wet times were appropriate. I can tell you that if you are using an EPA rated quats cleaner-disinfectant your wet times are going to be between 8 to 10 mins--meaning each surface has to remain wet, "by the clock" for that entire time. (We just went thru a hospital survey--can't you tell? :P )
The most important thing to remember is be respectful and courteous to the patient. They will train you on cleaning but only you can bring the personality required for EVS. TRUST ME... focusing on customer service and Patient Satisfaction will make you a Leadership FAVORITE. Congratulations on your new position 👏 🙌 😀
Exactly all of this can’t be done in 30 mins unless the rooms are clean on a regular basis. If they are then yeah because you don’t have to dust the same areas all the time
Never high dust above a patient or visitor unless the room is in need of dusting? So if it needs it you are going to drop all those dust bunnies on their heads?...LOL
