Healthcare facilities can choose from a number of disinfectants in a range of formats, including sprays, aerosols, dilutable concentrates and wipes.
Disinfectant selection is one of the two components essential for effective disinfection, according to an article on the Health Facilities Management website.
The other component is practice, including thorough application and the training of hospital staff on adherence to the manufacturer’s label instructions.
The directions for use are also important for compliance with manufacturer instructions, internal policies and the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services.
