House Keeping Dept
Linens
Hospital housekeepers gather, wash and iron dirty bed linens, scrubs
and gowns on a daily basis. Housekeepers are also responsible for
inspecting linens for wear and tear, mending them when possible and
discarding them when they can't be mended.
Facilities Covered
Hospital housekeepers clean all parts of the hospital, including waiting
areas, staff areas, examination rooms, wards, diagnostic testing rooms
and operating rooms. Housekeepers are responsible for mopping
floors, sterilizing surfaces and cleaning windows.
Patient Rooms
In patient rooms, hospital housekeepers clean bathrooms, change
bed linens, clean floors, dust surfaces and wash windows. When a
patient is moved from the room, the hospital housekeeping staff
sanitizes the room with specialized cleaning agents and prepares
it for the next patient.
Waste
Hospital housekeepers empty garbage cans and dispose of trash in
Dumpsters. They are responsible for attending to recyclables
according to the hospital's regulations and properly disposing
medical waste. |
