The clean side of a utility room is where sterilized equipment and supplies are stored, while the dirty side is where contaminated equipment is placed for cleaning and disinfection. In the clean side, equipment such as sterilizers, storage cabinets, and clean surfaces are necessary, while the dirty side requires sinks, worktables, and areas for cleaning and disinfection. Personal protective equipment (PPE) such as gloves, gowns, masks, and eyewear should be available in both areas to protect workers from exposure to contaminants. Supplies such as cleaning agents, detergents, and disinfectants should also be available in the dirty side.
