You need to minimize contact with sterile

equipment and clean all work areas every day so it is easier for you to keep on top of things. You need to

make sure you have specific procedures for hand washing and also

make sure your employees are wearing the right appropriate clothing.

Keep any equipment in appropriate containers

and make sure everyone cleans up spills instantly

and they do not just leave it there. Dust all the

shelves, walls and ceiling to reduce the amount of dirt. Discard any gloves

that have been used that day and make sure a clean pair is worn for

each new day.

Do not hang things from the walls such as notes,

keep the area around you as spotless as you can.

Do not touch any part of your own skin or anyone

else’s when you have working gloves on. Do not scratch your head or wear any jewellery in the room as hairs can fall out and

small objects can fall from the jewellery.
