Safe & Sane Cleaning

Safe & Sane Cleaning

In May, 2010, CHI has joined with the US manufacturer of a plant based cleaner and degreaser to restore previously available information for infection control issues. The information is applicable to home and institutional use (health and veterinary facilities), and there are applications for 'Clean Room' use.

We appreciate the newly gained support and cooperation of Mark Graff in our effort to include this work, first developed in 1993 in response to reports of flesh eating bacteria. Our thanks go to JBNI for their part in assisting CHI in the development of this protocol in 1993. CHI also wishes to thank Dr. Harry Preuss of Georgetown Medical Center for his input, first received in 2006, on essential oil research.

BioGreenClean: 100% Plant Derived, 100% Hypoallergenic, NO Harsh Chemicals, NO Dyes or Colors, NO Artificial Ingredients, NO Perfumes or Fragrances, NO Chemical Residue, NO Animal Testing, NO Peroxide, NO Ammonia, NO Bleach, NO butyl-cellusolve (2-butoxethanol).

When first using BGC you may notice something quite different. Beside the fact that there are no fragrances, what you really smell is the true aroma of "clean".

It is important to remember that 'dwell' time is important when using all natural plant based cleaners. The dirtier the area is the longer time you allow the solution to remain before wiping and rinsing clean, more effective benefit is achieved.

Because plant based cleaners continue to "clean" if allowed to remain on a surface, it is advised to rinse with clear water once you have finished cleaning an area to halt the cleaning process.

Essential Oils: Specific pure, pharmaceutical grade, therapeutic Essential Oils have a place in the field of infection control. They are indispensible when antibiotics do not work because they have a long, validated history of being antibacterial, antiviral, antifungal and antibiotic. Certain essential oils may be used directly on the skin, but very few. Certain essential oils improve their ability to fight organisms as they age, and several have been tested in combination with plant based natural cleaners like BGC with no lessening of the ability of the plant cleaner to function fully. CHI offers only pharmaceutical grade, high quality, pure, therapeutic essential oils.

JBNI: While all of the JBNI formulas have been tested at Dana Farber, the two products that brought them into this approach to infection control were 15.3 and 46. 15.3 is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory herbal formula based on thousands of years of application through the practices of Oriental Medicine. 46 is an immune boosting formula but as all JBNI products, they have multiple applications and can be potentiated when used in combination. JBNI offers its products through professional practitioners.

Based on my experience working in and managing critical care units and burn centers, I find that standard institutional cleaning practices used in health facilities can contribute to the spread of infection and need to be modernized.

Programs are developed on an individual basis for facilities and individuals, based on specific needs of the person or the facility.
