COMPOUNDING PHARMACY CLEANROOM CONTAMINATION CONTROL
STEP 2: MONITORING THE FACILITY AND CLEANING PROCESSES
Step two in the Circle of Compliance is checking the facility for the air cleanliness by measuring non-viable particulate and, most important, viable (live) organisms. The facility must be certified for compliance by the leadership of the facility at the time of facility startup, and every 6 months after that, or whenever any changes are made to the facility (ie. Servicing, installing or moving equipment).
Other events that require testing include the detection of possible problems with products, possible issues with staff technique, or a patient infection that could be the result of contamination of a CSP.
