As an Independent Home Care Provider for Amatulla’s Home Care Services we comply with the following Infection Control Precautions.
Hand Washing- Always wash your hands with soap and warm water before and after caring for a resident, after contact with contaminated items, after removing gloves, before preparing or eating food and after using the bathroom.
Gloves- Always use gloves with any contact of bodily fluid and handling soiled linen. Gloves are not necessary with casual contact with a resident. Always use disposable gloves and dispose them after each use with contact of a resident.
Disposal Waste- Place all contaminated trash, waste, tissues, diapers, sanitary napkins and dressings in a plastic bag. Dispose body fluids into the toilet, pouring directly in the toilet to avoid any splashing.
Needles- (For residents who administer their own injections) Be very cautious when disposing all needles in a puncture resistant container. Do not bend, break or recap needles after use.
Cleaning- Household detergents are very good for cleaning the house on the regular basis: floors, furniture, etc. Wash all dishes in hot soapy water.
Cleaning soiled linen that has bodily fluids: Clean with hot, soapy water. Always disinfect with a solution of one (1) part of household bleach to nine (9) parts of waters. (Note: use to clean counters, toilets, and floors).
Laundry- Keep soiled linen in a plastic bag. Add one (1) cup of bleach to hot, soapy water in the washing machine. If caregiver’s clothes are soiled same rule applies.
Masks/Eye Ware- If bodily fluids is likely to splash on the face wear eye protection and masks. (Protecting the mucus membranes of the mouth and eyes is necessary).
