Hospital and School Surface Disinfectant: Control Bacteria and DiseaseOur hands come across a wide variety of different surfaces each and every day.  Each time we touch a door handle, a countertop, a desk, or anything else, we leave something behind, and we also bring something with us.  This happens countless times a day.  But what exactly are we leaving for someone else to find?  And what did we unknowingly bring with us?  According to a study by ABC News, we come into contact with about 60,000 germs daily.  This number can grow even higher when you consider busy facilities like hospitals, schools, and industrial settings.  While only one to two percent of these germs are potentially dangerous, it is important to keep them under control, especially in highly trafficked, vulnerable areas, like the ones previously mentioned. 

Before we understand how to keep these surfaces disinfected and safe, we need to understand the different types of surfaces that will need to be treated.  The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention separates surfaces into two classifications:

Medical Equipment Surfaces

This classification includes knobs, handles, and other highly touched areas on medical equipment and fixtures.

Housekeeping Surfaces

This classification includes more common areas like walls, floors, table and countertops.  Housekeeping surfaces can also be further segmented in “low touch” and “high touch” surfaces

Low Touch Surfaces

These surfaces experience minimal hand contact.

High Touch Surfaces

These surfaces make frequent hand contact.

Now that we have the types of surfaces categorized, how do we keep them clean, safe, and free of dangerous bacteria?
