Maintaining your Disinfectants from Receipt to Application

In "Maintaining Your Disinfectants from Receipt to Application", microbiologist Dr. Mark Wiencek, and former EVS operations manager Ron Sample were joined by guest infection preventionist Michelle Knight to demystify the full lifecycle of disinfectants.

 

From EPA registration and shelf life to dilution accuracy and application methods, the panel delivered a thorough, hands-on look at what it takes to ensure disinfection practices are truly effective.

 

With live demonstrations and cross-functional dialogue, the webinar emphasized that while the EPA sets important starting standards, it’s up to healthcare professionals—EVS, IP, and clinical staff—to safeguard disinfectant integrity and protect patients from pathogens, including MDROs.
