Answer passage (source: Australia):
page_title: Hygiene and cleaning for the health workforce during COVID-19

Routinely clean surfaces in these areas.
These areas include staff dining rooms, cafes, retail outlets, and staff
meeting rooms.
Health care settings
In patient areas, including consulting rooms:

clean and disinfect frequently touched surfaces between each episode of patient care
take special care with surfaces that patients have touched directly or that have been exposed to respiratory droplets
take the 5 moments for hand hygiene approach

For inpatient care:

routinely clean and disinfect frequently touched surfaces at least daily
clean and disinfect more often in high intensity or high traffic areas, such as ICU or outpatient areas
clean and disinfect equipment after each use
clean and disinfect surfaces that have been exposed to respiratory droplets between episode of patient care

If an area is very contaminated, you may need to conduct a terminal clean.
Patient transport vehicles
Set the air conditioning to fresh air. Do not recirculate air in the vehicle.

Answer passage (source: Australia):
page_title: Cleaning to prevent the spread of COVID-19
section_headers: How should I clean if someone at my workplace is suspected or confirmed to have COVID-19?
section_content: If a person who has been at your workplace is suspected or confirmed to have
COVID-19, you must thoroughly clean and disinfect all areas of suspected
contamination.
Clean and disinfect all areas (for example, offices, bathrooms and common
areas) that were used by the suspected or confirmed case of COVID-19. Close
off the affected area before cleaning and disinfection. Open outside doors and
windows if possible to increase air circulation and then commence cleaning and
disinfection.

clean and disinfect hard surfaces using either: a physical clean using detergent and water followed by a clean with 1,000 ppm bleach solution (2-step clean), for example, household bleach or hospital-grade bleach solutions that are readily available from retail stores. Bleach solutions should be made fresh daily.
a physical clean using a combined detergent and 1,000 ppm bleach solution (2-in-1 clean) made up daily from a concentrated solution (refer to the Department of Health website for more information on achieving the correct bleach solution).

Once cleaning and disinfection is complete, place disposable cloths, PPE and
covers in a plastic rubbish bag, place it inside another rubbish bag (double-
bagging) and dispose of the bag in the general waste.
There is no need to close down an entire workplace, while cleaning and
disinfection takes place, particularly if the person infected, or suspected to
be infected, has only visited parts of the workplace. However the cleaning and
disinfection must occur before any workers return to affected areas.
Whether you need to suspend operations in your workplace will depend on
factors such as the size of the workplace, nature of work, number of people,
and suspected areas of contamination in your workplace.
Those cleaning an area of suspected contamination need to be equipped with
appropriate Personal protective equipment (PPE). This includes disposable
gloves and safety eyewear to protect against chemical splashes. If there is
visible contamination with respiratory secretions or other body fluids in the
area, the cleaning staff should also wear a disposable apron. If the person
with suspected or confirmed COVID-19 is in the area to be cleaned (e.g. a
hotel room), put on a surgical mask and ask the person to step outside if
possible.
Clean your hands using soap and water for at least 20 seconds, or where this
is not possible, hand sanitiser of with at least 60% ethanol or 70%
isopropanol as the active ingredient] before putting on and after removing
PPE.
Cleaning equipment including mop heads and cloths should be laundered using
hot water and completely dried before re-use. Cleaning equipment such as
buckets should be emptied and cleaned with a new batch of disinfectant and
allowed to dry completely before re-use.
If your workplace handles food, you should follow the additional advice of
Food Standards Australia New
Zealand.

Answer passage (source: Australia):
page_title: Cleaning to prevent the spread of COVID-19
section_headers: How do I clean?
section_content: Use the following steps to clean an environment:

Wear gloves when cleaning. Gloves should be discarded after each clean. If it is necessary to use reusable gloves, gloves should only be used for COVID-19 related cleaning and should not be used for other purposes or shared between workers. Wash reusable gloves with detergent and water after use and leave to dry. Clean hands immediately after removing gloves using soap and water or hand sanitiser.
Thoroughly clean surfaces using detergent and water. Always clean from the cleanest surfaces to the dirtiest surfaces. This stops the transfer of germs to cleaner surfaces and allows you to physically remove and dispose of the largest possible amount of germs.
If you need to use a disinfectant, clean the surface first using detergent then apply a disinfectant or use a combined detergent and disinfectant (see next section). A disinfectant will not kill germs if the surface has not been cleaned first. Apply disinfectant to surfaces using disposable paper towel or a disposable cloth. If non-disposable cloths are used, ensure they are laundered and dried before reusing.
Allow the disinfectant to remain on the surface for the period of time required to kill the virus (contact time) as specified by the manufacturer. If no time is specified, leave for 10 minutes.
