Physical Cleaning
Physical cleaning means that you will clean the keyboard, mouse, computer screen and check for any errors such as stuck or missing keys on the PCs keyboard.

The internet was restricted on the machine so we put the CCleaner installer on a flash drive from another computer and transferred it over and ran it. It unpacked and installed quickly and we ran the installed program to delete unnecessary/temporary files and clean the registry.
“Patient-centered care would allow for the dental hygienist to form a working relationship with his/her patients.” I think that is great that you think that because it seems like a lot of offices I know they have like a patient quota that they have to meet each day. Dental offices should not be like a drive through at a fast food place with just clean teeth then off you goes. Hygienists should be able to connect to their patients to have a better understanding about their dental health and overall health. We are proud to be hygienists because we can say that we help our patients one way or another to better their
You may not be the only person having to use the equipment and it is only courtesy to keep the equipment as you found it. Equipment should be kept clean and hygienic to prevent picking up illnesses such as cold and flu, and also to keep it pleasant.

According to the training videos Ehrenreich watched, the steps that are involved in cleaning a room are dusting and vacuuming. To prepare a room for dusting, Ehrenreich was first instructed to spray rages with Windex, wood polish, and disinfectant. The next step is to divide a room into sections and begin dusting from left to right and top to bottom. The first step in vacuuming is to strap on the ten-pound vacuum to your back. Next, the carpet needs to be vacuumed in a fern like pattern, which adds a “cosmetic touch” to the room. Finally, as a sign that the room has been cleaned, the room is to be sprayed with the company’s floral scented air freshener.

Professional studios take pride in their cleanliness; here are a few things to check for:
In the winter, most homeowners keep their windows and doors shut tight to prevent the cold air from entering their houses, but this act, while necessary, traps all the dust inside the rooms of their homes, making the air dusting and furniture and carpet dirty. But when the warm weather hits, it’s time to open up the windows, air out the rooms, and clean up the dirt that has nested into the carpet.

First and foremost before you begin cleaning; you need to create a good cleaning environment. You can do this by simply putting on any music that you enjoy listening to; I recommend something that you can sing along with. This will help to distract you from the
