Infection prevention

Ensuring Health and Safety Standards

Serenity House recognizes the importance of applying universal precautions and infection control and prevention measures recommended by Public Health Ontario and the Provincial Infectious Diseases Advisory Committee in order to prevent the transmission of infectious agents to clients, staff and visitors.

Hand hygiene

Hand hygiene is the most effective measure to prevent and control the transmission of contact-transmitted infections. Hand hygiene is the responsibility of each and every person who participates in the delivery of services to our clients. Rigorous practices are put in place and audits are carried out regularly to prevent the transmission of infections within SH.

Maintaining a clean and safe physical environment

Serenity House ensures the cleanliness and safety of its physical environment by conducting regular inspections and preventive maintenance.
