COG-CLEANING

This page will be all about completing cleaning audits on a mobile.

 
We will explain how to download audits, complete an audit and score elements, mark room audits as "Not Done ", add rooms to an existing audit, sign off audits, and upload audits.

 

There are some system parameters that affect the display on the mobile device. These are:

 

Hide Tier 0 Description in Mobile

Hide Scores on Mobile

 

 

Downloading audits on your mobile

Completing an audit and scoring elements

Marking room audits as "Not Done"

Downloading audits on your mobile

 

Start by logging into your mobile application. For details on how to login, please see our login guide. Once logged in, select the cleaning mobile link.

Once logged in, the download process will start, this will retrieve all of the audits that are allocated to the logged-in user, with an Audit Date less than or equal to the current date.

 

The user can set the number of work days to download e.g. on a Monday morning (e.g. 09/12/2019), if the user would like to download all audits for that week, the user can set the download days to 7. This means setting the download date to 7 Days where the first day is 09/12/2019 and end date of 15/12/2019.

 

This will retrieve all audits that have an Audit Date of less than or equal to 15/12/2019.

Note:  We have set the Hide Tier 0 Description in Mobile system parameter value to Yes, hence the Site description (Tier 0) is not included in the location path.

 

Rooms

This column is showing 2 types of information.

 

The first line is showing the number of room monitoring audits against the number of total rooms in the functional area e.g.:

 

Location        : Block 04\Level 01        

Rooms        : 8/16

 

This means the user is auditing 8 rooms out of the 16 rooms in Block 04\Level 01 functional area.

 

The second line is showing the Completed rooms percentage e.g.

 

Location        : Block 04\Level 01        

Rooms        : 8/16, Comp. 38%

 

This means the user has completed 38% out of the 8 rooms to audit.

 

S/O

Indicates if the functional area/audit group is signed off.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Completing an audit and scoring elements
 

Select an Audit Group from the Location List view (e.g. Block 04\Level 01). This should navigate the user to the Area List view, listing the outstanding room monitoring audits. The user can start auditing the cleaning areas/rooms. Select a room from the Area List (e.g. Pharmacies with aseptic suite), this will navigate the user to the Element List view.

 

The Element List view will display all the available elements against the selected room.

 

Note: The background colour on each of the elements indicate the default responsible group per element.

The colour is set from the main application via Menu > Common Maintenance > Table Maintenance > Cleaning > Responsible Groups.

Whilst the element default responsible group is set from Menu > Cleaning > Monitoring Elements view > Responsible Groups tab.

 

AuditCleaningAreas MobileAreaElements

 

The score of the elements will be defaulted to the value specified in the system parameter Element Score Default Value.

There are three score options when auditing elements: Pass, Fail or Not Present.

 

To score an element, select the element (e.g. Wall fixture) from the Element List. This should navigate the user to the Element Result Details view. Tap the Score field to open the score selection list:

 

ElementScoreElementScoreOptions

 

If the user selects Pass or Not Present, no further details are required.

However, if the user selects Fail, the user gets navigated to the Failure Details view. This will allow the user to enter details of the failure (e.g. Failure Reason, Responsible Group, Corrective Action, and Notes) with the ability to add multiple failure reasons for each element.

 

FailureDetails ElementScoreWithFailures

 

The user can choose to add photos to the elements by clicking on the [ Take Photo ] button.

Depending on the device the user is using, this will either launch the device camera or open the device gallery. Once photo is taken, it should appear at the bottom of the screen:

Once the element is scored, the user can add their final notes and click on the [ Save ] button to apply the changes and navigate back to the Element List view.

 

There is also another way the user can score an element.

Select an element from the list and swipe right to Pass, or swipe left to mark as Not Present:

 

ElementScore_SwipeRight ElementScore_SwipeLeft
 
After all the elements have been audited with a score and details of any failures added, the user can complete the room monitoring audit by clicking on the [ Save ] button at the bottom of the screen.

 

This will navigate the user back to the Area List. If the Hide Scores on Mobile system parameter is set to No, the room score will be displayed next to the room description. The Comp. (Completed) column value should be set to Yes:

Select an option (e.g. Room Locked) from the list and add notes, then click on the [ Ok ] button.

This will navigate the user back to the Area List view and mark the room as Completed with no score.
