infection prevention and control
In this task, you will be observed in a simulated environment to confirm you can perform skills to industry
standards and workplace expectations. The observation requires you to demonstrate you will follow
organisation policy and procedures to clean up the blood and bodily fluids and minimise the risk of
spreading infection to others.
You will respond to a situation where a colleague at the ECEC Center had a fall in a washroom and
bleeding.
On the end of the assessment, you will be required to submit the following document:
OBSERVATION CHECKLIST 2 – PPE and cleaning blood spills and body fluids (HLTINF006
Assessment Task 3)
Completed Hazard Report Form (Attached)
Completed Incident, Injury, Trauma and Illness Record (Attached)
Scenario
During your shift at one of the ECEC Centers, Mark (5 year old), who is one the client, has had a hard fall.
He has fallen as he exited the washroom. He has slipped and hit his head on the floor and a large wound
has opened up just above his eye. The paramedics have been called and Mark has been taken to hospital
in ambulance. After he and all of the support staff have vacated the room, you have been called in to clean
up the sizeable blood spill that has occurred.
You have been informed by the attending support worker that when Mark was in washroom, he called for
help just before slipping and falling. She has informed you that Mark sometimes loses balance due to an
inner ear issue and this is likely the cause of his fall.
While cleaning up you have identified that Mark could have also slipped on the bathmat which was not
secured and looks like it came out from under his foot. There is also no lower grab bar to assist Mark as
he exits the shower – there is one in the shower and one by the toilet, but not one along the wall near the
towel hanger. You can see that the towel hanger is bent and broken, most likely because Mark tried to
grab it for balance and it broke causing him to fall and hit his head.
During the demonstration, your assessor will be looking to see that you can:
follow policies and procedures when cleaning blood spills and body fluids
use correctly put on appropriate PPE and use cleaning products
correctly take off PPE
correctly dispose used PPE and cleaning items to avoid possible infection spread.

responds saying that she feels a little tired and doesn’t have much appetite. As a COVID-19 screen

symptoms. She checked out fine so you don’t think too much of it.
