How the score works

The score is the share of scored questions that pass. N/A is left out of the score; text, dates and signatures are recorded but not scored. A completed template is a record of what you checked; it is not an inspection by a regulator or an accreditation body.

Questions

Why is thermal disinfection important for laundry?

Thermal disinfection is crucial for eliminating harmful microorganisms from linen, especially in healthcare and hospitality settings, to prevent the spread of infections.

What is a calibrated probe?

A calibrated probe is a temperature sensor that has been checked and adjusted against a known standard to ensure its readings are accurate and reliable for critical measurements.
