Chlor-Clean Tablets Training Presentation
Summary
TLDRThe video script outlines the Department of Health's guidance on environmental disinfection using chlorine-based cleaning agents. It introduces 'Crawl Clean Chlorine,' a solution that cleans and disinfects simultaneously, saving time and improving efficiency. The script provides detailed instructions on preparing, using, and disposing of the solution, emphasizing safety, proper ventilation, and protective measures. It also addresses the disinfection of blood spills and the importance of not mixing the solution with other chemicals. The effectiveness of 'Claw Clean Solutions' is highlighted, with independent testing confirming its ability to kill harmful microorganisms, making it suitable for various disinfection tasks in healthcare settings.
Takeaways
- 🧼 Chlorine-based cleaning agents are recommended for environmental disinfection during outbreaks, with a strength of 1000 parts per million available chlorine.
- 🧽 Cleaning and disinfection are different processes; cleaning removes dirt and some microorganisms, while disinfection destroys harmful microorganisms.
- 💧 Traditional disinfection involved a three-step process: cleaning surfaces, rinsing detergent residues, and wiping with a chlorine solution.
- 🔝 The introduction of chlorine tablets containing a surfactant simplifies the disinfection process by combining cleaning and disinfection in one step.
- 📝 Always read the instructions provided with the chlorine tablets and wear protective gear when preparing and using the solution.
- 🌡️ Prepare the chlorine solution with cold water to avoid a strong, unpleasant smell and potential irritation.
- ⏱️ Allow the tablets to dissolve for 10 to 12 minutes and ensure the solution is mixed gently and remains active for 24 hours.
- 📋 Use a disinfectant wipe or a chart to record when the solution was made to ensure freshness.
- 🧹 Apply the solution with disposable cloths or mops and avoid rinsing off after cleaning, except for specific cases where metal surfaces are exposed.
- 🚮 Dispose of used cloths and mop heads according to clinical waste policies and always wash hands after handling.
- 🛡️ Claw clean solutions are proven to kill harmful microorganisms and are not suitable for disinfecting blood spills, which require a different procedure.
- ⚠️ Do not mix claw clean solutions with other chemicals and store the tablets and prepared solution safely, away from patients and the public.
Q & A
What is the purpose of the Department of Health's guidance on environmental disinfection and decontamination during outbreaks?
-The purpose is to provide a method for using chlorine-based cleaning agents at a strength of 1000 parts per million for effective environmental disinfection and decontamination to combat harmful microorganisms during outbreaks.
What is the difference between cleaning and disinfection as mentioned in the script?
-Cleaning involves the removal of dirt, grease, detritus, and some microorganisms but does not kill them. Disinfection, on the other hand, is the process that destroys harmful microorganisms.
Why was the traditional three-stage disinfection process considered time-consuming and tedious?
-The traditional process involved cleaning surfaces with detergent and water, rinsing away detergent residues, and then disinfecting with a chlorine solution, which was labor-intensive and often not performed properly.
How do chlorine tablets with a special surfactant improve the disinfection process?
-Chlorine tablets with a special surfactant dissolve in water to create a solution that cleans and disinfects simultaneously, saving time and improving the efficiency of the disinfection process.
What precautions should be taken when preparing the chlorine solution?
-One should read the instructions, improve ventilation, wear a protective apron and gloves, check the expiry date on the chlorine tablets, and use only cold water to dissolve the tablets to avoid a strong unpleasant smell.
How long does the prepared chlorine solution remain active for use?
-The prepared chlorine solution remains active for 24 hours, so it should be freshly made up every day.
What should be recorded on the 'Clau clean makeup chart'?
-The time and day when the chlorine solution was made up should be recorded on the 'Clau clean makeup chart' to ensure the freshness of the solution.
How should the chlorine solution be applied to clean and disinfect surfaces?
-The solution should be applied with disposable cloths or mops to clean surfaces, floors, or equipment, leaving them clean and moist but not wet. The surfaces should then air dry without rinsing off the solution.
What should be done with used cloths or disposable mop heads after cleaning?
-Used cloths or disposable mop heads should be discarded into the clinical waste stream according to the trust policy, and reusable mop heads should be sent to the laundry.
How do Clau clean solutions perform in independent laboratory testing?
-Clau clean solutions have been proven to effectively kill harmful microorganisms, including MRSA, other staphylococci, GRE, enterococci, E. coli, Pseudomonas, Klebsiella, fungi, and viruses like norovirus, as well as bacterial spores like Clostridium difficile.
What is the recommended procedure for disinfecting blood spills as per the Department of Health and Health and Safety Executive guidelines?
-The recommended procedure is to disinfect the spill with chlorine at 10,000 parts per million, mop up the liquid with paper towels, and discard it as clinical waste. The area should then be properly disinfected using disinfectant wipes or a Clau clean solution.
