    Picking the wrong person to clean your carpets is like mixing a red sock with your white clothes and then adding bleach. Imagine this: those door-to-door salesmen who SWEAR they know what they're doing when it comes to cleaning your carpet may seem to know what they're talking about with their fancy suits and carpet cleaner in hand but do they really? I mean, when they want to test clean your carpet they don't say, "Hey, what's this carpet made of?" They just go ahead and attempt to clean a spot and then it changes colors. And now, you have your nice blue carpet turned orange because someone didn't read a tag. At IJCSA that is not something you need to worry about. Here, we are all trained to not only read the tags on your carpet but also are trained to clean your carpet based on what your carpet's tag says and the nature of your carpet stains! But hey, I don't know about you but when my carpets get cleaned, I like them soft, odorless, and the same color as when I bought them. Choose an IJCSA member to clean them and you won't regret it.

    As a cleaning business that will be digging itself into a field that specializes in biohazardous materials, carpet cleaning will be I believe one of the most common necessities. Whether there is a chemical spill, a blood stain, or even something simple that can be considered a biohazard if any of these were to end up on a carpet, my company will be responsible for cleaning it up. Implementing a carpet cleaning program can result in leaving my employees with the knowledge of how to clean certain types of carpets correctly depending on the material and what type of stain there is. For example, one of the more expensive materials if I remember correctly in the reading is a type of silk and it was recommended to leave it up to certain professionals and that is definitely something I will take into account.

    Another thing, implementing a carpet cleaning program, especially if it is by a certified IJCSA member, increases the likelihood of it getting done correctly. For example, because of my business's specialty I learned that to clean blood out of a carpet to 1.) never use stroking motions, but to dab the cloth on the stain and 2.) to never use hot water on a blood stain because it will end up setting the stain into the carpet. If I had not taken this course, I would have not known that.

    Medical cleaning practices are very strict in the sense that there are rules to follow when it comes to the cleaning. Since medical facilities need to be properly clean to avoid patient getting sick medical cleaning practices can benefit residential and commercial places. The majority of people won’t be familiar with some of the rules and proper methods went dealing with cleaning chemical.

    Some of those standards can help other residential and commercial situations in the sense that if they can implement a higher standard of cleaning there would be less people getting sick. There would be a lower number of people calling in sick to work and to school. Medical cleaning practices implementation at home can also help you avoid going to the doctor because of bacteria’s or virus that could have been avoidable if we were to do a deeper cleaning with the right cleaning chemicals. 

    A good idea to implement is to have a higher standardized level of cleaning for all types of situations, for homes and work places. By implementing medical cleaning practices across the board we can have a better control when it comes to people getting sick. According to the CDC, cleaning alone effectively reduces the number of microorganisms on contaminated equipment. Now imagine having the knowledge to use the correct chemicals it can really impact us in a good way.

    Now, that we are in a pandemic cleaning is crucial and knowing and implementing the high standards of medical cleaning can keep a better control of the spread. For example, knowing that we should clean with color rags that way we are not cross contaminating areas and knowing about how to correctly use chemical that can kill harmful virus and germs.

    Healthcare facilities required special steps and procedures to clean and disinfect due to the high risk of contamination from harmful pathogens such as germs, bacteria, and viruses. How can we implement the same procedures to other areas of janitorial services? And how can we be the fore front against the spreading of diseases from these microorganisms?

    Medical cleaning training procedures are effective in high risk areas where germs and viruses are present. The use of PPE and appropriate cleaning and disinfecting techniques are very important to avoid direct or indirect contact with pathogens. The same procedures could be utilize for residential and commercial cleaning to achieve better results for your own company and customers.

    Cleaning methods use in health care facilities can be apply in residential cleaning. For instance, high touch areas should be disinfected in the same manner medical institutions do, as well as bathrooms and kitchen. When it comes to commercial cleaning, the same procedures for health care facilities should be use. In commercial settings high traffic areas like floors and carpets should be disinfected in a daily basis. Items like phones, computers key boards, hand rails and door knobs are a breeding ground for viruses.

    Protecting our environment wheatear is home or business from harmful pathogens is essential for a good standard of living. Cleaning and disinfecting is a good habit and should always be exercised in a daily basis. As of right now, with the recent covid-19 pandemic we are aware of how important disinfecting is and how keeping a good habit of cleanliness have a positive impact in our lives.

    Bloodborne pathogens are microorganisms that are in human blood and has the potential to cause various disease if exposed. These diseases may include HIV/AIDS, hepatitis b, hepatitis c, malaria, and syphilis. The CDC reported that approximately 5.6 million healthcare and janitorial service workers are at risk of exposure to bloodborne pathogens. Therefore, we must maintain gaining knowledge of bloodborne pathogens.

    It's important to have knowledge of bloodborne pathogens because when knowledge is applied correctly it reduces the potential of a threat. Continually educating yourself on OSHA guidelines keeps the employer and their employees safe, also eliminates exposure in the workplace. With the training and guidelines of OSHA, it teaches us that we should treat all bodily fluids as if they are contaminated since there is no way to differentiate between infected fluids and non-infected fluids.

    In conclusion, educating ourselves about bloodborne pathogens should remain our priority. Annually educating ourselves and employees on the proper clean up of bodily fluids will continue to ensure workplace safety. Taking the initiative to meet OSHA guidelines will help you and others around you by limiting exposure.

    To protect the humanity from harmful bacteria, germs and viruses the medical cleaning practices should be implemented in residential and commercial facilities cleaning situations. 

    Let’s talk about the residential and commercial facilities first to be better situated.

    Residential facilities are private where people live in like townhouses, condos, single family etc… in other hand commercial facilities are the property used for business operations like hospitals, nursing facilities, retail stores, shopping centers, office spaces etc…

    People commute between these places meaning from private facilities to business and vice versa. Therefore bacteria, germs and viruses are very common in these places. 

    The fact that it is impossible to know who has what type of disease or where these germs and viruses are sitting, the medical cleaning practices shall be used to eliminate or minimize the growth of these germs and viruses.

    If it is a healthcare settings, staff should be aware of Bloodborne pathogens and universal precautions shall be in place. The EVS staff shall receive the proper training so they know what chemicals to use, how to clean patient rooms (discharge, occupied, isolation etc…), the frequency of cleaning high touch surfaces.

    Cleaning companies with well trained staff are another resource that can be used to clean these places
