🧽 Day 4 — The Importance of High Touch Surface Cleaning
High touch surfaces are the areas people interact with constantly throughout the day — and because of that, they’re one of the fastest ways germs can spread in any workplace or clinical setting.
Think about how many hands touch:
• Door handles
• Light switches
• Desks and keyboards
• Phones and reception counters
• Toilet flushes and taps
• Handrails and communal equipment
These surfaces can hold bacteria, viruses, and contaminants long after they’ve been touched.
At Prism Commercial Cleaning, high touch surface cleaning is a core part of our IPC approach.
✨ Our high touch cleaning includes:
• Thorough disinfection of frequently used surfaces
• Fresh, single use cloths for every room
• Targeted cleaning in reception areas, washrooms, and shared spaces
• Extra attention in clinical environments where IPC is essential
• Reducing the risk of cross contamination between staff, patients, and visitors
High touch areas may be small, but they have a big impact on hygiene and safety.
🌈 Small surfaces, big protection.
Consistent high touch cleaning helps break the chain of infection and keeps workplaces safer, cleaner, and more comfortable for everyone.
