cleaning of high touch points in Aged Care

[nicoladouglas@thebays.com.au]

I am after some advice from other aged care IPC’s regarding the cleaning of high touch points in communal areas in aged care in Victoria at present. The current literature suggests cleaning twice daily when there is an outbreak. Can’t find anything stating the current recommendations when there is no outbreak. We are currently still cleaning high touch points in communal areas twice daily.

Kind regards
