In healthcare environments, every precaution is taken to reduce the risk of cross contamination and prevent the spread of bacteria. There are countless policies and procedures that define safe ways of working, how to clean items correctly, and the equipment or clothing that is required to keep staff, patients, and molecular components safe.
