Hospital Cleaning and Environmental Hygiene Services Management

Environmental hygiene is a frontline defence against infection, yet cleaning services are often overlooked in facility management. This course equips managers to run effective hospital cleaning operations, from zoning and cleaning schedules to auditing and staff training. It reflects the realities of African hospitals managing high patient volumes with limited cleaning resources.
