Cleaning & Disinfection
The Bayshore will always adhere to the highest standards of cleanliness and disinfection. Proper disinfection is essential to reducing disease transmission.
- Social distancing, along with proper hygiene (e.g., washing your hands), is the best way to reduce the risk of infection or spreading infection.
- Critically, if you wear a mask, you must wash your hands before putting it on, as well as before and after taking it off. Cloth masks should be worn only a short time, as there is some evidence that they can trap virus particles after they become damp, which may put the wearer at greater risk.
- Non medical masks are allowed to be worn by staff, For those choosing to wear non-medical masks, it may be prudent to carry a bag with several clean masks in it, as well as a plastic bag that can be used to safely store used masks until they can be washed at home.
- It is critical that used masks be carefully handled to avoid spreading infection to others.
- Staff will wear gloves as there is potential to be exposed to an infected individual or contaminated items.
- All staff must know the correct procedure for glove removal & disposal.
- Wash hands immediately after gloves are removed.
- Cleaning refers to the removal of visible dirt, grime, and impurities.
- Cleaning does not kill germs but helps remove them from the surface.
- Disinfecting refers to using chemical to kill germs on surfaces. This is most effective after surfaces are cleaned. Both steps are important to reduce the spread of infection.
Common Areas
- Increase daily cleaning and disinfection of common areas and surfaces by creating a cleaning and maintaining a cleaning schedule or log.

- Disinfect cleaning equipment such as toilet brushes, vacuum cleaners, buckets, brooms, and mop handles every day.
- No employees should enter the room of a guest who is self isolating or who has symptoms.
- Use a disinfectant that has a Drug Identification Number (DIN) and a virucidal claim. Be sure to follow the instructions on the label to disinfect effectively. Alternatively, use a bleach/water solution 20 ml of unscented household bleach per 1,000 ml of water.
- Health Canada has approved several hard-surface disinfectants and hand sanitizers for use against COVID-19. Use these lists to look up the DIN number of the product you are using or to find an approved product. Make sure to follow instructions on the product label to disinfect effectively.
Be sure to take the appropriate precautions when using chemicals for cleaning and disinfecting. Consult the products’ Safety Data Sheets and use PPE if required.
