New cleaning programme for residential homes

The manual is part of the Trust’s ongoing commitment to best practice in cleaning, which ensures high standards of hygiene are maintained in all Trust facilities. ?”

The manual endorses a rigid and robust approach to scientific cleaning. It details cleaning methods, what cleaning products to use and how often. It also concentrates on cleaning processes required to assist in the prevention and control of infection. It also provides information on the process for auditing cleaning standards in the Home.

Maire Bermingham, Assistant Director of Corporate Support Services said: “This is an excellent guide for managers and domestic staff in our residential homes. It ensures that the cleaning regimes we have in place are consistent throughout the Trust."
