Infection control plays a significant role in healthcare cleaning services. Academy's methodology strictly focuses on the need to prevent and control infections through safe work practices, protocols, hand hygiene and cleaning procedures. Academy's procedures identify hazards and minimises the risk of infection.
Academy follows The Australian Council on Healthcare Standards (ACHS) that include important aspects such as relevant codes of practice, statutory requirements and Australian Standards. ACHS’s mission is to promote, in cooperation with health care professionals, the continuous improvement of the quality and care delivered to patients.
Academy's service plan establishes formal lines of communication, personnel qualifications, equipment, safety, performance expectations, and participation in our quality audit program.
We recognise that achieving consistency with our cleaning service is of paramount importance.
The standard of cleanliness for areas in the very high risk category is of critical importance. Within these functional areas there is a very high risk of infection.
