This study aimed to reduce the number of environmental microorganism colonies in the hemodialysis room. A biological fluorescence reaction assay revealed 47.6% of unqualified colonies in the room. Our analysis identified the following reasons for this finding: cleaning tools are dirty and indiscriminately used, medical instruments once cleaned are not returned to their positions, the bleaching solution is not properly prepared, the cleaning personnel is insufficient and are not working properly, and the patient unit is not cleared. By implementing the principles of 5S phases Sorting, Straightening, Systematic cleaning, standardize and Sustain, the medical equipment cleaning work specifications, the development of cleaning work specifications, the production of reminder slogans, the modification of the use of cleaning tools, the implementation of clearances between class and class, etc., and the implementation of environmental cleaning work, a reduction in the the colony failure rate from 47.6% to 7.9% was achieved. Thus, developing habits to implement and monitor a clean environment can maintain patient safety and improve quality of care. (Tzu Chi Nursing Journal, 2020; 19:5, 84-96) |
