The scope
The scope sets out the area, what's removed, the disinfectant and its contact time, and how the waste leaves the site.

How we do it
Sharps
Needles and syringes are picked up with tongs or a sharps tool, never fingers, and placed point-first into a rigid sharps container. The area around them is checked, including under furniture and in bins. Full containers are sealed and go to a licensed collector.
Two steps
Disinfectant doesn't work through dried blood or grime, so the surface is cleaned first. Then the disinfectant goes on and stays wet for the full contact time on its label, which can be minutes, not seconds. Porous materials that have absorbed fluids are removed, not treated.
Waste
Contaminated waste is bagged in the work area, sealed, labelled and handed to a collector licensed by the EPA to transport it. It never goes in a general bin or a skip. The record lists what was removed and how it left the site.
In and out
Time-stamped on arrival and when the visit closes.

Questions
Anything that can carry infection: blood, body fluids, vomit, faeces, used needles and the materials they've soaked into. Sites after an unattended death or an illness outbreak count too. If you're not sure, keep people away from it and call.
A small spill on a hard surface can be, by someone with a spill kit, gloves and a disinfectant, if your site has a procedure for it. Larger spills, anything on carpet or soft furnishings, and anything involving sharps should be scoped as a biohazard clean.
It's sealed and labelled on site and handed to a collector licensed by the EPA to transport it, for treatment at a licensed facility. Sharps go in rigid sharps containers. None of it goes in general waste.
Yes. Touch points, washrooms, kitchens and shared desks are cleaned, then disinfected with a product suited to the illness and left for its contact time. The record lists the areas, the product and the times, for your own reporting.
Yes. Details stay with the people you name. At a business, the work can be done outside trading hours with the area screened off.
We'll come out to scope it, then send a written scope covering the clean, the disinfectant and how the waste leaves the site.
