    The importance of cleaning employees & staff knowing about Bloodborne Pathogens is crucial.  The Bloodborne Pathogen Training is not only for the health and safety of your company and its employees, but for the customers you service as well.  It is necessary that any janitorial staff that handles sharp bins, biohazard waste, or potentially contaminated objects know how to protect themselves against - what to do in case of exposure.  It is for this reason alone that any employee is at risk to exposure to blood and other infectious substances be required to be Bloodborne Pathogen Certified. 

    With this Certification employers are able to well equip their employees' with proper PPE, and keep them up to date on all of the industry standards.  Employees are able to use precautions when entering into situations in which they may be exposed.  This Bloodborne Pathogen Certification training ensures all cleaning employees are Qualified to work in this specialized environment.

    Lastly, the proper documentation of an Exposure Control Plan as well as having a Post-Exposure Policy in Place allows both the company and its employees to stay on the same tract and up to date on how the company handles Bloodborne Pathogens as an entity itself.

    Knowledge of Bloodborne Pathogens and the standards in place are important safeguards in the prevention and spread of pathogens. Their associated diseases which may result in illness and potentially death can be prevented through awareness. and consistency.

    Bloodborne Pathogens are pathogenic microscopic organisms found in human blood. They cause diseases some of which include Hepatitis B(HBV) or  HIV. Common points of exposure occurs via the mucus membrane in either the nose or mouth, or cuts or other breaks in the skin. Blood, saliva, or vomit can potentially contain Bloodborne Pathogens.

    The best way to prevent exposure to Bloodborne Pathogens is by following the Bloodborne Pathogen Standard developed by OSHA. Guidelines are provided in the form of Universal Precautions which makes the recommendation that all bodily fluids be treated as potentially infectious, and that guidelines are followed at all times to minimize exposures.

    By continuous education on best practices, and constant diligence in their execution, exposure to Bloodborne Pathogens can be greatly minimized and create a happy workspace for all those involved.

    This is the situation, before we can discuss medical cleaning practices we have to think about why is there one in the first place. The reason is because it all starts from our home and businesses. If we implement a plan to treat our home and business just as it were the same as healthcare, we could tremendously lessen the spread of germs, bacteria and viruses. 

    Some residents and business owners rather try to do things themselves then to hire a cleaning expert https://www.ijcsa.org/Janitorial-Service-Directory-Find-A-Janitorial-Service-JanitorialServices that is trained and knowledgeable on how to clean homes and businesses properly and correctly. They risk doing it themselves (lack of knowledge). So, because of that we now bring it from our home to our job or business, spreading germs, bacteria and viruses in the workplace.

    This is the reason we have medical cleaning practices. Medical cleaning practices should be no different from home or businesses, we all should have implemented a cleaning care plan in place starting from our home to keep our loved ones and others safe. We are all in this together and we need each other to help keep all of us safe. So, to all residents and business owner contact https://www.ijcsa.org/Janitorial-Service-Directory-Find-A-Janitorial-Service-JanitorialServices an expert in cleaning to help remove stress from you by providing regular maintenance cleaning.

    Remember a clean environment is a healthy environment!

    Implementing a green cleaning system in your commercial or residential business provides a healthier environment.  It reduces the need to use harsh chemicals that can have a negative long term effect on an individual's health.

    Using the program in the workforce makes facilities healthier and safer for all employees.  The green cleaning system reduces bottles in our landfills.

    Due to the Covid- 19 pandemic  I believe it is best for cleaning service providers to implement a green cleaning system for all clients. While providing exceptional service, your clients will know that we are making their facilities safe an healthier.

    Overall the implementation of the green cleaning system improves air quality and is a cost saving measure of cleaning product/s.

    The way I plan on having implementing a carpet cleaning plan is by having a three step process. The three step plan includes daily, intermediate, and deep cleaning. These three step helps the customer save money and shows charisma.

    The daily cleaning process consist of daily vacuuming. If you are not able to have it done daily then as much as possible weekly. Second step includes "spin bonneting". A spin bonnet is usually used to to remove soil from top portion of the carpet. Spin bonneting is conducted quarterly. Last step is deep cleaning which is done annually. Deep cleaning is exactly what the name cartels. Deep cleaning gets down deep into the carpet pulling dirt and soil from within. This is done wall to wall to ensure a complete clean.
