In order to be a successful Specialist, it is extremely important to keep your hands and work tools sanitized, as well as your supplies decontaminated, to avoid the spreading of any germs or infections.
Because every state has different laws regarding decontamination, it’s important to
know your local health department’s rules and regulations. In order to make sure you are following all of your state decontamination laws, it is also very important to
understand the differences between cleaning, sanitizing, disinfecting, and sterilizing.
There are the 4 methods of decontamination.
- Cleaning: Using warm water and soap for at least 20 seconds; eliminating surface
particles. - Sanitizing: Using Alcohol (60 percent min); which eliminates or reduces bacteria.
- Disinfecting: Using Barbicide or Germicides; this method reduces bacteria to a safe
level. - Sterilizing: Using high heat; kills all living organisms on non-porous, hard surfaces.
Dispose of everything that is non-reusable.
Self-sanitation:
- Wash hands with warm water and soap for 20 seconds or more in between each client.
- Get rid of non-reusable items.
- Keep hand sanitizer on your possession at all times.
Disinfecting your supplies:
- Reusable tools much be cleaned properly before disinfection. Any surface debris will reduce the effect of the disinfectant, and can cause cross-contamination.
Disinfecting steps:
- Clean reusable tool with warm water and soap.
- Use fresh disinfectant, and follow the instructions on the disinfectant.
- Remove reusable tool after recommended time. Rinse the equipment in clean water to remove residue.
- Dry the tool with a clean, lint-free cloth, or allow to air dry. Cover tool with a clean cloth, or store in a closed container.

This way you have time to properly clean, organize, sanitize everything before heading to your next job, disinfect all your tools, and thoroughly wash your hands before visiting your next client. We recommend having a second copy of each tool on hand for use when the other set is in the disinfectant.
