OCE Outbreak Cleaning
OCE’s outbreak cleaning services are designed to help businesses respond quickly and effectively to viral or bacterial outbreaks, minimising health risks and supporting a safe environment for employees, clients, and visitors. Outbreak cleaning involves specialised sanitisation and disinfection protocols aimed at thoroughly removing pathogens from all high-contact and high-risk areas. Our process goes beyond routine cleaning, incorporating advanced disinfectants, targeted techniques, and strict adherence to health and safety guidelines to ensure the highest standard of cleanliness. This service is especially valuable for sectors with high hygiene demands, such as healthcare, aged care, education, and offices with high foot traffic.
​
The outbreak cleaning process begins with a thorough risk assessment, during which our team evaluates the facility’s specific needs, identifying areas with high transmission risk, such as door handles, lift buttons, workstations, and communal areas like kitchens or bathrooms. Our team works closely with clients to address any specific concerns or areas of interest to ensure that every aspect of the facility is accounted for. This preparation phase is essential for creating an effective, customised plan that ensures comprehensive coverage and prevents pathogen spread within the facility.
​
To achieve maximum efficacy, OCE utilises hospital-grade disinfectants and advanced cleaning technology. These disinfectants are chosen for their effectiveness against a wide range of pathogens, including bacteria, viruses, and fungi, ensuring the removal of potential contaminants from all surfaces. High-touch areas are given extra attention, and we use techniques such as electrostatic spraying, which enables even distribution of disinfectant across large surfaces and hard-to-reach areas. This method is particularly useful for covering irregular surfaces and ensures a uniform layer of disinfectant for optimal pathogen elimination.
OCE's team is highly trained in outbreak cleaning protocols, including the use of personal protective equipment (PPE) and infection control practices that minimise cross-contamination and safeguard both staff and facility occupants. Our team follows rigorous decontamination procedures before, during, and after cleaning to ensure that no secondary contamination occurs. Adhering to strict safety standards, including ISO 45001 for occupational health and safety, is a top priority in our outbreak cleaning services, ensuring a reliable, safe, and compliant process that aligns with national health regulations.
​
Outbreak cleaning is not limited to surfaces; we also focus on air quality by incorporating ventilation and air filtration assessments into our protocol. For facilities with HVAC systems, we conduct an air quality inspection and clean or replace filters as needed to minimise airborne contaminants. This approach supports a cleaner indoor environment and helps prevent airborne pathogen spread, a valuable step in containing outbreaks within enclosed spaces.
​
OCE’s outbreak cleaning services are available as both a reactive and a preventative measure, with flexible scheduling to meet the urgency of the situation. Our team is available for rapid-response cleaning in the event of a confirmed outbreak or potential exposure, ensuring that affected areas are disinfected and safe for use as quickly as possible. For clients looking to prevent potential outbreaks, we offer ongoing disinfection services that can be integrated into regular cleaning routines, providing peace of mind that high-risk areas are continually sanitised.
​
With OCE’s outbreak cleaning services, clients receive a proactive, thorough solution that mitigates health risks and ensures their facility maintains the highest level of hygiene. Our approach prioritises both effectiveness and efficiency, allowing clients to maintain operations with minimal downtime. OCE’s commitment to safety, health, and professional standards means that businesses can rely on us to support a clean, protected environment during times of heightened hygiene needs.
