Plastic sheeting and sealed doorways keep the blood from being carried into clean rooms on shoes or tools.
Blood is lifted from every surface it reached. Soaked items are removed and the remaining surfaces are sanitized.
Disinfectant stays wet on every surface for the label time. The crew then checks the work and takes the waste out.
