Clean a trauma room blood every where on the ceiling under the carts the OR bed wheels are caked with blood. It’s a mess blood foot prints leading outside. And its a STAT cleaning they need this room.
This is nothing more than an ad for Rubbermaid. They missed a lot and did a lot wrong. Seems more like general cleaning rather than OR sanitization. Or maybe the hospital my mom worked at was just different, idk, but this just seems like a super light cleaning to me.
I like to save disinfectant and towels by licking up bodily fluids when possible. I’ve learned oragami so that I can fold one disinfectant soaked towel 300 times. I’ve developed my own figure 64 mopping technique. 8 squared . My company is now testing removing people from the entire equation including the surgeons, nurses and Evs. We are thinking about using drones. They will not touch anything 😂😂😂😂
I Actually clean for the OR.. 2:00 why would you bag up linen that you may think has sharps in them? 2:20 Please put some Coagulation in the containers first. 3:03 this Video is brought to by RUBBERMAID.. 3:30 while dump every air borne Pathogen into a "RUBBERMAID Container".... after this.. Rubber maid for got to say.. Change your gloves .. "High touch areas" in an OR is not the Highest arm of the light.. High Touch areas are.. the Phone.. the Door. door handle... 8:15 didn't lift the casters of the table, for that gets Bloody too. 8:31 this brought to you buy RubberMaid... It's A Commerical by people have never ever cleaned an OR. I love how the OR Floor is already clean.... 9:15 Not after a Hip or Knee...Where blood is every where.
I found this video just to prove to myself that using paper is NOT "more" hygienic than a cloth for cleaning roadside toilets... I got petty after not receiving cloths from the cleaning agency I recently accepted a short term contract from
Kristen Heath this depends on the case. If the patient was otherwise healthy this actually is not done unless to spot clean blood. If the patient has C-diff for instance, then this would be done. They are taking their time for the video. In reality, from time of roll out to roll in is no more than 20 minutes in a trauma center. Meaning they could have just finished a whipple. Very big case. 20 minutes later room is cleaned and set up and patient is either moving to the table or is being moved by the OR staff. 4 years in surgery support and applying for scrub tech if you want to bring in experience
I use to do this job and every single room we went into one person was doing the walls and ceilings and floors. The other cleaning the bed the trays the chairs ect.
are u changing gloves in between this, she's touching the dirty light, and the buckets and cloths and then touching the table and mats. seems like a good way to cross contaiminate
Definitely should be. That was always a beef of mine. I stopped anyone I caught doing that. It's the same with food prep staff. Some think one pair of gloves last hours.
Catching doing what? Cleaning? The disinfectant is killing what it says it does . There is no perfect way to clean. You would have to go through 20 boxes of gloves, 25 sets of gowns, 200 masks, shoes not to leave the OR, and someone to spray you down in a contamination zone before and after you left the room right? What about taking off all of the light switch and outlet covers and cleaning behind them? Completely repainting the room? Where does it end?
There is the ideal and the real, this would be ideal but it is not real. I am an EVS and this is not real if we have five minutes between cases to clean it is a lot. Now it is about putting as many cases as possible on the day.
I’ve watched quite a few of these types of videos and they are all jokes. I want to see the video where the evs person is asked to clean a room that is occupied by 8 different pieces of equipment, bed, bathroom, curtains etc. in about a half hour all while trying to keep themselves safe. Better yet, make it a Covid room where the ventilation system doesn’t work properly and is stuck at 85 degrees while they have a gown and n95 on sweating like a “whore in church”. It’s almost amazing they don’t pass out and still get the room clean.
There's so many error here I dont even know where to start. (Been working with this, this video shows cleaning of a operation-theater that will leave it with a high risk of infecting the next patient from the former patient)
If she’s in constant contact with the quaternary disinfectant then no. The disinfectant does not stop working. If that were the case you’d have to have to get a new towel every time you touched a different dirty area of the same piece of equipment you are trying to disinfect. I recommend she changes gloves for her own safety because the disinfectant contains ammonium chloride which actually eats through the nitrile gloves and causes burns and irritation . It also eats through medical grade stainless steel over time making the steel look rusty or covered with blood. You should use as many towels as the room requires and not focus on saving money. Just make sure to scrub and let the product dry.
I have a surgery after three weeks but seriously I won’t go for it. That’s cleaning scared and discussed me and also what about cleaning the surgical tools, they supposed to dump everything after every surgery.
