What is an operating room housekeeper?

Operating Room Housekeepers are specialized cleaning staff responsible for maintaining the cleanliness and sanitation of operating rooms in hospitals and surgical centers. Their duties include disinfecting surfaces, disposing of medical waste, restocking supplies, and ensuring the environment is sterile to prevent infections. They play a critical role in patient safety by following strict protocols and working closely with medical staff to ensure operating rooms meet health and safety standards before and after surgical procedures.
