Developing a cleaning protocol involves several steps:
1. Risk Assessment: Identify areas that are high-risk for contamination, such as frequently touched surfaces. 2. Selection of Cleaning Agents: Choose appropriate cleaning and disinfecting agents that are effective against the pathogens of concern. 3. Frequency and Schedule: Establish how often cleaning should occur and at what times. 4. Training: Ensure that all personnel are adequately trained in the cleaning procedures. 5. Monitoring and Evaluation: Implement a system for monitoring the effectiveness of the cleaning protocols and make adjustments as needed.
