Disinfection in healthcare facilities reduces the microbial load on surfaces and eliminates harmful microorganisms in the air, limiting risks to patients.
The health emergency caused by the Coronavirus (COVID-19) has increased collective awareness of how important it is to have environments disinfected and decontaminated, especially in healthcare facilities or doctor’s practices.
Healthcare environments, as well as medical clinics, are daily frequented by a very large number of people who come to this place mainly because they have health problems, need a visit and the right treatment.
This means that every patient can bring viruses, germs and bacteria into the environment and contaminate the air and the surfaces with which they come into contact.
Healthcare facilities are therefore places where the microbial load can be very high, bringing a high probability of infection and disease.
If not carefully disinfected, they can become source of infection. This explains why very high hygiene standards are required in medical practices in order to protect the health of patients and doctors.
Simply cleaning the rooms is not enough to guarantee a deep disinfection of the environment: it is therefore essential to plan specific treatment in order to guarantee the total disinfection of the rooms.
Furthermore, according to the provisions of the Italian Legislative Decree 81/08 (Consolidated Law on Health and Safety at Work), employers must guarantee healthy working environments for their employees (doctors, secretaries, receptionists, etc.).
