4.2 CLEANING
Cleaning should conform to the standards set by the hospital. All materials used in the
manufacture of the chairs have been found to be suitable to be cleaned with standard hospital
cleaning products, however to ensure suitability, a test should first be carried out on an
inconspicuous piece of material, or a sample provided by the manufacturer.
The following should be used as a guideline only and no claims will be accepted for
damage or otherwise from following these guidelines:
RECOMMENDED CLEANING PROCEDURE FOR MEDICAL TREATMENT CHAIRS
The following recommended procedure should only be used if it generally conforms to
Infection Control Guidelines of the hospital.
Step 1
Bodily fluids may carry infectious material. Ensure that
protective garments and gloves are worn prior to
commencing the cleaning operation.
Step 2
Remove as much of the spilt liquid as possible using a
sponge-type material with a dabbing motion.
Step 3
Make up a
diluted
bleach solution (e.g. Miltons) of 1
part bleach to 30 parts water.
Step 4
First test the solution
on a small area of the vinyl.
Then, pour onto spill area and wipe with a mopping
action.
Step 5
Use a general purpose detergent cleaner with warm
water on a cloth for a final clean.
CAUTIONARY NOTES ABOUT BLEACH
:
1.
Never allow bleach to mix with ammonia.
If you have recently used ammonia on or
near the area you are about to clean,
do not use bleach.
2. Always take care when working with bleach and keep it away from children. Bleach is
not only poisonous and corrosive, but it can damage clothes and materials.
