STERILE RESPONSE EMERGENCY COVID-19 SERVICES

Does your business have a COVID-19 outbreak response?

Do you suspect your premises or staff may be at risk from COVID-19 infection? 

Don't panic! We're all in this together and Sterile Response is here to help.

If you’re an essential business operating at this time, keeping your workplace safe and free from infection is likely a primary concern as despite best efforts, a COVID-19 case may impact your business.  The Bahamas' DEHS reopening guidelines call for every business to “clean and disinfect all areas…routinely.” Also, at this point it is clear that individuals can be asymptomatic and still transmit COVID-19, so necessary actions have to being taken across every organization that has its doors open.

As a result, many organizations are taking steps to respond quickly to a confirmed or suspected COVID-19 case and to keep their facilities sanitized, such as wiping down areas with disinfecting wipes and cleaning more regularly than normal. We believe that these steps are important but not sufficient to maintain a safe work environment in the midst of an epidemic.

We strongly recommend professionally disinfecting your facility. Here are three reasons why:

1. Professional sanitizing can reach all corners of the facility. By applying disinfectant using a combination of techniques—including fogging, steam, surface wiping, and spraying—areas of the building are addressed that would otherwise be missed by ordinary cleaning.

2. Professional cleaning utilizes a different quality of sanitizing product. Some off-the-shelf products can be effective at addressing coronavirus, but they will not have the efficacy of a higher-strength disinfectant. Sterile Response uses professional strength,  hospital-grade, EPA approved products for use against COVID-19.

3. By not using your employees or staff to clean and disinfect the premises, you are keeping them safe and out of harm’s way. Professional crews such as ours are trained to wear the proper personal protective equipment (PPE) and clean in such a way as to minimize risk to themselves and others. Sterile Response can also schedule after-hours work to avoid contact with your occupants and eliminate any person-to-person interaction. This is much safer than having staff clean during regular business hours. 

If you suspect or have confirmed a COVID-19 case on your premises, call Sterile Response 24/7 and we will arrange a site visit as a matter of urgency. Our trained technicians will disinfect your premises following the appropriate standards and guidelines to prevent any further spread of the coronavirus and to prevent or limit cross-contamination.
