Definition
Cleanliness is both the abstract state of being clean and free from
germs, dirt, trash, or waste, and the habit of achieving and
maintaining that state. Cleanliness is often achieved
through cleaning. Cleanliness is a good quality, as indicated by
the aphorism: "Cleanliness is next to Godliness", and may be
regarded as contributing to other ideals such as 'health' and
'beauty'.

There are three important factors which together help ensure the cleaning and disinfection practices
within the healthcare facility are of a high standard.
These include:
chemicals,
equipment and
techniques.
All cleaning services staff should be aware of the importance of each factor
and how they interrelate. For example, if the cleaning chemicals that are
used in the facility are adequate for the purpose, but cleaning equipment is
dirty (e.g. unclean mops or buckets) or the cleaning technique is poor, then
the cleaning/disinfection of the area will be sub-standard. This chapter
contains information about these three important factors.

There are two main groups of cleaning chemicals that are to be used in the
healthcare facility:
2-step clean which involves a physical clean using detergent solution followed by use of a
chemical disinfectant
> 2-in-1 clean in which a combined detergent/disinfectant solution or wipe is used and
mechanical/ manual cleaning action is involved.
Care should be taken to ensure that the cleaning chemical is used appropriately and in
accordance with the manufacturer‟s specifications. For example, certain chemicals, particularly
chlorine-based disinfectants, may need to be rinsed off with water after the disinfectant contact
time has been achieved. In these cases, the cleaning process will require an additional step to
6
those specified above.
In general, all cleaning equipment used in healthcare facilities should be fit for purpose, cleaned and stored dry
between use, well maintained and used appropriately. Other factors regarding cleaning equipment are
discussed below.

Housekeeping Department has an overall responsibility to co-ordinate between the contractors and all
