Cleaning and Disinfection Plan
5.2.1
Manual cleaning
Continuous disinfection is only necessary in hospitals when a resident has a multiple-re-
sistant pathogen (e.g. MRSA).
Alternatively, the manual cleaning of the bed may be carried out after disinfection and hy-
gienic treatment according to the Destech procedure. Please see the documents of the
company Destech for further information.
•
The electrical components must not be subjected to a jet of water, a high pressure cleaner
or other similar devices! Clean only with a moist cloth (at most with pressure-less splash
water)!
•
If you suspect that water or any other form of moisture has penetrated the electrical com-
ponents, unplug the power plug immediately or do not plug it back into the socket. If al-
ready disconnected from the mains supply, make sure it is not plugged in again. Report
this immediately to the operator responsible.
•
Failure to follow these instructions could result in considerable damage to the bed frame
and its electrical equipment and lead to subsequent faults!
•
Remove the bed linen and send it to the laundry service.
•
Clean all surfaces, including the slatted bed frame and mattress base made of synthet-
ic inserts or a metal lattice base, with a mild and environmentally friendly cleaning
agent. This also applies for the handset.
•
If the bed has been visibly contaminated with infectious or potentially infectious materi-
als, the bed should be subsequently disinfected. Use one of the disinfection media ap-
proved by the DGHM (Deutsche Gesellschaft für Hygiene und Mikrobiologie, German
Society for Hygiene and Microbiology) which is suitable for the corresponding surfaces.
The same applies for all beds with residents who have notifiable diseases according to
§ 6 of the Infektionsschutzgesetz (IfSG, Protection against Infection Act), bacterial in-
fections, or infections with multiple-resistant pathogens (e.g. MRSA, VRE), as well as
all beds in intensive care stations and infectious disease clinics. For all disinfections,
the concentrations given in the DGHM list must be observed.
•
Disinfection of the castors is only necessary when they have been visibly contaminated
with infectious or potentially infectious materials.
