DecontaminationPregunta 19 de 100
A decontamination area is equipped with three sinks. What is the intended use of each?
a.Soak, sterilize, and dry
b.Rinse, disinfect, and lubricate
c.Wash, intermediate rinse, and final rinse
d.Presoak, ultrasonic, and inspection
Explicación
The standard three-sink configuration separates the wash bath from an intermediate rinse and then a final rinse, usually with treated water, so detergent and loosened soil are not carried forward onto clean items. Sterilization, disinfection, and lubrication never take place in a decontamination sink. Ultrasonic cleaning and inspection are done in dedicated equipment and areas, not in the sink bays themselves.
