A new range of UV-Based Audit and Compliance Self-Test Tools, which are all you'll need to establish if your Wards, Surgeries and Patient Treatment Areas etc, are actually being cleaned effectively.

             And not just visually clean...

                         ...but Hygienically clean!

WASH & GLOW UV AUDITING - HOW IT WORKS

Through a unique combination of WASH & GLOW UV products, a series of invisible 'test' marks are discreetly placed in areas where hygiene is critical i.e. frequently touched areas, Surgeries, operating theatres, food preparation areas etc.

These discreet UV marks, when used in conjunction with a Cleaning Audit, will enable the effectiveness testing of your cleaning methods.

Besides the obvious high risk areas, these simple checks will establish if floors are being thoroughly cleaned i.e. right up to the skirting boards and into those hard-to-reach corners. Underneath patient beds and around waste bins etc. These are excellent test locations, as are door handles, lift / elevator call buttons, communal door handles / knobs and hand rails, even clipboards and patient records.

Depending on the particular nature and scope of the audit, apply the UV Audit Marks and note their exact location on your audit sheet. A follow-up Audit Inspection using a Forensic UV lamp, will determine which marks have been removed by effective cleaning and which were not!  The results of the Audit will establish if there is a need for any follow-up corrective action such, as re-training for staff etc.

Random 'recorded' auditing & testing thereafter, will help ensure new practices and higher standards and maintained.

As you will see, the principle is simplicity itself and should provide an invaluable contribution to the war on poor hygiene.

Ask yourself...
	Q	How do we know if our Hygiene-Critical Areas are really clean as we think they are?
	Q	How do we know if Cleaning Methods are really as effective as they can be?
	Q	How can we measure, improve upon and then maintain higher hygiene standards?

 Here's how ... Follow the TTIM Principle...

 

Time for Re-training?
An Audit failure can be seen as a positive thing, as it will enable you to re-train your staff for best practice and help them achieve a higher standard of care in their work, and with ongoing 'random' testing, you'll be able to determine if its being maintained.

WASH & GLOW UV AUDIT TOOLS

A New Range of Hygiene Compliance Auditing Tools

	Introducing a totally new Cleaning Audit / Cleaning Inspection tool.  The Wash & Glow UV Marker will create an temporary 'invisible' mark on most surfaces. Being being alcohol based, it is hygienic  to use and will not cross-contaminate... (image left shows a UV Audit Kit #5)
... When illuminated by Long wave UV light, the invisible mark will glow bright white! Simply create a series of marks on and around the area to be audited, after cleaning, use the UV lamp to see if any marks remain. If marks are revealed, then cleaning has not been performed effectively.
	To complement our new UV Marker tool, we have produced an invisible UV revealing spray, which also glows white under UV light! Being alcohol based, it ensures a simple and hygienic test with no  contamination. Use for testing larger areas such as floors, under beds etc and for total area coverage, where a cleaning method evaluation is required.
The latest innovation hot from the Glowtec Labs is the new UV Germ Powder Marker.  This chunky but tidy Marker, comes with a choice of 3 UV colours (for different tests or zones) Once marked, the Alcohol carrier quickly evaporates to leave behind a discreet layer of invisible UV Germ particles.
