Are You Ready for Your COVID-19 Rebound?

Safety has always been a priority, but making customers feel confident is critical for a quick rebound. Learn how to prepare for a strong execution of your return.

1. Where are you interacting with customers?

Purchase counters or front desks often require physical interaction with customers. It may be a form that needs to be filled out, or the handling of cash. Consistently cleaning the areas, as well as having alcohol-based hand rubs available for use can help keep employees and customers safe. Some ideas to help limit the spread of germs:

• Have alcohol-based hand rubs available for use after interaction
• When available, the use of electronic forms (ex: patient forms completed online prior to visit)
• Promoting the use of credit cards over cash

2. Cleaning up the common areas

Areas like waiting rooms or fitting rooms see a large amount of traffic on a daily basis. Furniture should be cleaned on a consistent basis to stop the spread of any germs from one customer to another. Fun fact: Germs will not die if you only spray the disinfectant and immediately wipe the surface. Green Clean uses Electrostatic sprayer and/or wet disinfection application with dwell times of at least 3 minutes. This is key.

3. Where are the hotspot touch points?

Common points of contact should be cleaned multiple times each week. Examples include: door knobs, telephones, coffee pots, light switches, keyboards, all areas of a restroom, and break room counters or other common areas. 

4. Communication! 

Transparency is key. Communicating the precautions your team has taken to keep a clean environment, as well as posting reminders of ways customers can help prevent the spread of germs are appreciated by the community.
