Hi
Here at BMDAM & Springwood hospital, we have a simple drawn up chart, one for wards-persons and one for nurses, that equipment has to have a full clean and be signed off when attended. We have separate ones for wards-persons and separate ones for each of our ward areas for the nurses.
Happy to share.With regards
Amanda

Subject: Cleaning Patient Care Equipment – Who Does What??Hi All,
With the increasing amount of equipment, trolleys, technology etc being introduced to our patient care areas, cleaning of these items can be challenging & often causes great debate. Staff are expected to clean patient care equipment after use, but not all items are used on a daily basis but will require periodical cleaning e.g. minimum weekly & not all patient care equipment / technology items are used directly on a patient e.g. stock trolleys, computers on wheels etc
Is a nurses job, an environmental Services or other staff job?
We would greatly appreciate any information people would be willing to share generic list of items for a ward & the associated cleaning schedule & who performs task.
We would also appreciate any information about how you negotiated the allocation of cleaning tasks
Many ThanksCath Wade
