Ongoing Maintenance Plan
When individuals have returned to the team facility, a maintenance plan should be agreed between their COVID-19 lead and local health authorities to comply with PST measures, and WHO hygiene guidance. These measures should be maintained until it is mutually agreed that they are no longer necessary. The plan must include;
- A thorough cleaning programme with the appropriate method of recording.
- Where practical heavily used equipment and high contact surfaces should be cleaned more often
- The use of changing rooms and showers should be suspended until further notice from your Club. Relaxation in these restrictions will be guided by local health authority PST measure policy.
- Doors should be wedged open, so that handles use is not needed (unless being utilised as a fire door).
- Have a clear isolation plan in place to manage the possibility of an individual becoming unwell this would include;
-
- Isolation in pre-ordained room
- Notify local health authority and manage the individual appropriately
- Provide necessary close contact detail for contact tracing
- Arrange for through cleaning of the isolation area post-use.
- If an individual at the facility is confirmed as an infected person or potentially infected person, the facility should be thoroughly cleaned as outlined by the WHO or relevant public health authority. There is no requirement to close the facility unless required to do so for cleaning. It is recommended that the COVID-19 manager liaises with local government and health authorities to guide appropriate actions.
