133 Words1 Page

According to the data in my experiment, lemon oil cleaned better than Clorox in both the girls bathroom and on the elementary handrail. But my results were still somewhat inconclusive. In the case of the girls bathroom the results weren’t too messy, there was 23.6% bacteria on the surface before I cleaned it, and after I cleaned it with Clorox the amount of bacteria was reduced by 20% to 3.6%. However, after I cleaned it with lemon oil it was reduced to only .9% bacteria which is 2.7% less bacteria than when I cleaned it with Clorox. In addition, I also cleaned the handrail in the Elementary building, and these results were quite interesting. Before I cleaned the surface there was only 2.3% bacteria.

    The primary prevention is the best way to eliminate the potential for exposure. Since hand washing is the most effective mean of spread of infection, it would be my primary goal to increase the compliance of hand hygiene among healthcare workers, but also an extensive education of patients and family members on hand washing before and after touching the patient as well as afar any contact with any potentially contaminated materials (surface, body fluids or respiratory secretions). Mandatory education of patients, visitors and healthcare workers, across the system as well as cross department compliance practices are single best mean of preventing the spread of infection. For example, every patient and family member can be educated about hand hygiene, use of PPE-personal protective equipment (face mask, gowns and gloves). Although, the practices are already being utilized, I believe the compliance is poorly monitored.
