When it comes to point of care, every part of the patient’s room matters.

Even with routine cleaning, frequently touched surfaces can contribute to the spread of germs if overlooked.

These areas below are touched constantly by staff, patients, and visitors, making hand hygiene at the point of care essential.

The easier it is to clean hands, the easier it is to help stop the spread of germs. Point of care tools make cleaning hands easy.

Do you know how fast germs can spread?

When spills or bodily fluids aren’t cleaned properly, contamination can quickly spread to surrounding surfaces and through touch, far beyond the original area.

Germs don’t stay in one place. They move through contact, equipment, and high-touch surface

This is why proper cleaning and disinfection matter, especially in areas where you may find:

Spills

Blood

Bodily fluids

Stop the spread at the surface. Clean first. Then disinfect.

Great disinfectants to eliminate germs at the source are:

Buckeye Sanicare Quat-64™

Buckeye Terminator™

Sanicare Disinfecting Wipes

Germs don’t disappear just because it’s warm outside. With more visitors, guests, and staff mingling in facilities every day, the presence of germs can remain high.

To best prepare, here are some ways Symmetry can help your facility:

Posters
Placards
Flyers

Reinforcing hand hygiene is important and having visual aids can improve healthy hand hygiene practices. If you don’t have any visual cues, Symmetry can customize designs to fit your facility needs.
