In addition to cleaning verification testing, EnHealth’s CIH is able to provide guidance to develop appropriate cleaning protocols if test results come back above the established criteria levels. The two surface sampling tests below are used to evaluate routine cleaning procedures for frequently touched surfaces (such as elevator panels, tables, telephones, handrails, and doorknobs) and enhanced cleaning and disinfection procedures after persons suspected/confirmed to have COVID-19 have been in the workspace. Adenosine triphosphate (ATP): ATP sampling is extremely sensitive and provides real-time data to assess the level of cleanliness of the sample surface. Reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR): RT-PCR analysis is more specific and can test for the presence of coronaviruses and SARS-CoV-2 on swabbed surfaces. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e3a0c4cf5e8276255f3edcf/03e93a5e-604a-4974-8aea-7260e4ccf4c7/air-quality-min.jpg COVID-19 Assessment The general consensus from both the CDC and the American Society of Heating, Refrigeration, and Air Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE) is that heating, ventilating, and air condition (HVAC) should be part of an overall strategy to limit the risk of indoor infections from COVID-19. Recommendations include improving central air filtration, increasing ventilation, and increase the percentage of outside air as much as possible, while considering the capability of the existing HVAC system. EnHealth’s CIH will review the operational status of your HVAC system and perform indoor air quality (IAQ) testing to measure airborne levels of several indicator parameters. Measuring IAQ parameters provides surrogate measures for factors believed to be associated with disease transmission, and can assess whether the HVAC system is providing sufficient air quality conditions for building occupants. Typical IAQ parameters may include: Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) Carbon Dioxide (CO2) Carbon Monoxide (CO) Temperature Relative humidity Particulate matter https://www.enhealthconsulting.com/environmental-monitoring daily 0.75 2022-06-16 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e3a0c4cf5e8276255f3edcf/21d6222b-d908-42be-9267-db00ed722868/industry-min.jpg Environmental Monitoring - Environmental Monitoring EnHealth’s environmental monitoring professionals will help your organization ensure that potential worksite pollutants do not exceed environmental quality standards, and that established worksite controls are being applied and are effective.
