What are the Challenges in Maintaining Cleanliness in Nursing?
Maintaining cleanliness in nursing can be challenging due to various factors, including high patient turnover, limited resources, and the presence of multidrug-resistant organisms (MDROs). High patient turnover increases the workload on healthcare providers, making it difficult to ensure thorough cleaning between patients. Limited resources, such as staff shortages and inadequate supply of cleaning materials, can also hinder effective cleanliness practices. The presence of MDROs requires more rigorous cleaning protocols and can complicate infection control efforts.
