# Environmental Services (EVS)

healthcare 

The hospital department responsible for cleaning, disinfection, and waste handling across the facility.

## Definition

Environmental Services (EVS) is the operational team within a healthcare facility that manages routine and terminal cleaning, disinfection of patient care areas, waste segregation, and support of infection prevention protocols. EVS staff are typically trained in the correct preparation and application of disinfectants such as NaDCC solutions.

## Why it matters

EVS teams are often the largest workforce interacting with clinical environments outside of clinical staff. Their consistency directly influences infection rates, patient safety, and regulatory compliance.

## Practical applications

Preparing chlorine disinfectant solutions from tablets, cleaning isolation rooms, managing spill response, and coordinating with infection prevention specialists on outbreak protocols.
