Today’s time has proved with much more evidence that the hospital design and construction plan highly impact its atmosphere. The smooth running of procedures and treatments can only be ensured when patients feel safer. Thus, after the best doctors and facilities, the most important criterion for selecting a hospital is hygiene.
Hygiene in Hospital Design
Many aspects contribute to the making of an ideal hospital or clinic, and stringent hygiene methods are at the core. Hospitals are places where infections can spread easily, making sanitation crucial in areas like:
- Operation Theatres
- ICU
- Pathology Labs
- Blood Banks
- General Wards
Challenges with Floor Surfaces in Hospitals
Hospitals are dynamic environments with a lot of movement, especially during emergencies. The floor surfaces in hospitals and clinics are:
- Contaminated with extensive footfalls.
- Cleaned regularly, but cleaning only removes visible dirt, leaving behind stubborn pathogens in tile joints.
Additionally, the frequent use of harsh cleaning chemicals can weaken tile joints, leading to:
- Powdering of tile joints.
- Accumulation of dirt and water.
- Growth of germs and bacteria, creating an unhygienic environment.
Patients with low immunity are particularly vulnerable to these hidden threats, making proper tile joint care essential.
The Need for Chemical and Germ-Resistant Tile Joints
To maintain hygiene and safety, tile joints in hospitals must be:
- Chemical Resistant: To withstand harsh cleaning protocols
- Germ Resistant: To prevent the growth of bacteria and fungi.
