    Occupations across the spectrum carry the risk of exposure to bloodborne pathogens. These microscopic entities like Hepatitis B and HIV, can lurk in human blood and certain bodily fluids. With proper safety measures, we can significantly reduce the risk of infection or even exposure.

    The prime protection is the concept of universal precautions. This principle emphasizes treating all human blood and bodily fluids as potentially infectious, regardless of the patient's known health status. By adopting this cautious approach, we can minimize the chance of exposure in unexpected situations. Universal precautions translate into practical steps like wearing personal protective equipment (PPE) such as gloves, gowns, masks, and eye protection during any procedure that might involve contact with blood or bodily fluids.

    Beyond individual protection, universal cleanup procedures are crucial to prevent the spread of pathogens in the environment. This involves proper disinfection and disposal of contaminated materials. Spills should be cleaned using designated disinfectants, and needles should be disposed of in specific marked, color coded containers to avoid accidental injury.

    By prioritizing safety through universal precautions and meticulous cleanup, we can create a safer environment for everyone, from healthcare workers to the general public. Remember, prevention goes a long way in protecting ourselves and those around us from the dangers of bloodborne pathogens and keeps everyone safe.

    Creating a clean and harmonious environment is important for the safety and wellbeing on people. We believe in being of service to people and that should be the root of every cleaning business mantra. 

    If you were to improperly clean schools, children and teachers would be ill and unable to attend. The same goes for doctors, surgeons and all people in the healthcare industry. Imagine how it could affect the maternity ward?

    In the case of a viral epidemic such a COVID, without a trusted cleaning company who is trained on how to elevate disinfecting procedures you would almost be setting up the inhabitants for failure. 

    Great cleaning comes with great knowledge and with that comes great service and client relationships for any business endeavor. If you're looking for an janitorial ally visit https://www.ijcsa.org/Janitorial-Service-Directory-Find-A-Janitorial-Service-JanitorialServices

    Ensuring safety protocols are established and follow via and annual plan is just the beginning and is a daily work and endeavor that is imperative to keep staff safe. Ensuring that cleaning employees understand the importance of these simple practices is critical in maintaining the safety of employees and patients when applicable. 

    Bloodborne Pathogens can seem like a daunting concept to understand and maintain; however, when simple tasks are established it is more easily manageable. The video was extremely enlightening and I enjoyed how simple it was to understand so these practices can be appropriately incorporated into daily operations.

    Why is green cleaning so important to every living creature on the earth? There are many resources that prove that there is a direct correlation between using eco-friendly products and reducing toxins in the environment.

    We all rely on the same eco system, so shouldn't we all make sure we do everything we can to protect it? With out a complete and healthy eco system the repercussions could be staggering, the cost of goods would be unimaginable. The food we consume could become inedible because they would contain to many and or toxins at a level that renders them dangerous for consumption.

    Green cleaning is also important to human health. Our bodies can absorb chemicals in many ways, which include breathing, consuming and absorption. Some of these chemicals can cause serious inflictions to our bodies, some include sterilization, birth defects, cancer, organ failure, etc. Some affects can't necessarily be easily noticed and can include dizziness, nausea, headaches, cognitive function issues and more.

    Being educated on what bloodborne pathogens you may come across in your every day life is truly vital for all humans. Although you may only clean residential environments that don't require this type of training, accidents can happen and you may be asked to clean up a mess that you truly need training on.If you know what bloodborne pathogens exist you may decline cleaning this mess in the correct situation.

    Having a certification on bloodborne pathogens plays an integral role in medical offices, oral surgery offices, schools and beyond. Without the proper cleaning protocol, residual pathogens may remain, contaminating the environment and creating harmful dangers to new inhabitants.

    Since we as cleaners have taken on the responsibility of keeping all types of environments clean and healthy for any activities that may go on there, it is important that we are able to protect ourselves and our employees so that we can further be of service to the public.

    Bloodborne pathogens can cause harmful disease that can affect your own life and those around you. Taking the training course with IJCSA can prepare you to take a step back when you encounter any of these situations in your every day or work life and handle them with the proper care and procedures

    When I think about providing janitorial cleaning services to a residential client or commercial business, the goal is always the same. I am looking to restore your environment.

    Environment restoration is about coming home to a clean and organized home that helps you recharge, instead of draining you after a long day of work.

    Environment restoration for a commercial business can include sanitizing, window washing, carpet cleaning, etc, but at the root of it all, the true reason why the company has hired a janitorial service is so that the employees of the company can do their jobs in a clean and bright environment.

    It is a necessity to schools, offices and hospitals because these are all places of great productivity. Employees may behave differently if they had to spend 8-12 hours a day in a dark and dirty environment. 

    Janitorial services should tailor their cleaning plans to the clients specific needs. It is about fostering close and symbiotic relationships with ALL clients. The results will show in your business productivity and the return of your own personal clients or guests into your fresh and welcoming environment. 

    Companies who are involved with IJCSA are dedicated professionals looking to show their support to the world through their janitorial services. To find providers in your area please visit the link below and type in your zip code.

    Some commercial cleaning products may be dangerous to your health. There are chemicals that may irritate your skin, eyes and throat. That may lead to various health complications.

    Green cleaning products, on the other hand, are least hazardous for health and the environment they do not contain harmful chemicals and are eco-friendly.

    Being a green cleaning certified is important because I learned to clean for human health and work safely. I also learned to use eco-friendly cleaning products that help protect human health and environment.
