How to use
- Identify the items or touchpoints you want to audit (for example bed rails, door handles, tap handles, call bells, shared equipment).
- Apply a consistent size dot to each chosen point using the fluorescent gel pen and allow it to dry colourless.
- After cleaning, inspect the same points using the UV torch. Marks removed indicate the point has been wiped, marks present or partially present indicate a failed clean at that point.
For training exercises, use the UV powder sparingly and only on hard, smooth surfaces to help demonstrate transfer from hands or reuse of wipes.
