Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
These recommendations for improving environmental cleanliness in NHS hospitals have been developed by the Infection Control Nurses' Association and the Association of Domestic Management. They cover the recruitment and retention of staff, conditions and patterns of work, and the provision of a 'rapid response' domestic services team to deal with specific incidents. The book also recommends and provides an audit tool for assessing standards, containing forms and checklists for use by audit teams.
Includes bibliographical references (p. 32).
