Healthcare Cleaning Department Lead - Online and On-The-Job Training
This training program prepares members to work safely, professionally, and independently in the healthcare environment. Participants build a strong foundation in infection prevention, including proper PPE, personal hygiene, and cleaning vs. disinfection principles, while learning how hospitals operate, who key staff are, how to navigate traffic zones, and how to respond to emergency codes. The program includes hands-on training for decontamination and processing areas (sink bay, decontam carts, hood/vent, ultrasonics, autoclaves, and washers), as well as high-touch equipment and OR support (stretchers, labor beds, OR bins, OR tables, mobile stock, and surgical tables). Throughout the program, learners practice compliant workflows that prevent cross-contamination— the clean hand/dirty hand method—while strengthening communication and teamwork skills. The final week consolidates all learning through review and demonstrated proficiency to ensure readiness to perform safely and in compliance with hospital standards.
