Residents in aged care settings are often more vulnerable to infection, and illness can spread quickly through shared common areas, dining rooms and high-touch surfaces if sanitisation isn't frequent and thorough enough to keep pace with the level of daily contact.
This makes the standard, single daily clean common in many settings insufficient on its own, high-touch surfaces in particular often need attention multiple times a day rather than once, especially in communal areas used continuously throughout the day.
A structured sanitisation schedule, built specifically around the facility's layout and traffic patterns rather than a generic cleaning routine, is what genuinely reduces infection risk in these settings, frequency and consistency matter as much as the products used.
