What do you mean by polluted area, semi-polluted area and clean area in the hospital?

1. Contaminated area: Any area contaminated by pathogenic microorganisms or directly or indirectly contacted by patients is called a contaminated area, such as wards, toilets and bathrooms. Articles in the polluted area are not allowed to be taken out without disinfection.

2. Semi-polluted area: The area that may be polluted by pathogenic microorganisms is called semi-polluted area. Such as infirmary, treatment room, laboratory, inner corridor and discharge sanitary disposal room.

3. Clean area: Any area that is not polluted by pathogenic microorganisms is called clean area. Such as changing rooms, duty rooms, pantries and warehouses.

This is a relative concept. The environment of the hospital and the area of the ward are different. For example, in a hospital, the cleaning of general wards is divided as follows: clean area: blue; Potential pollution area: yellow; Contaminated area: red. Every hospital is different. Mainly the logo is eye-catching, and the staff knows the purpose and significance of zoning.
