Take a careful look at the labels of traditional cleaning agents, such as cleaners, degreasers and disinfectants, and you’ll find the many harmful ingredients quietly lurking in them. Choosing a safe and effective range of cleaning agents ensures the health of your workforce. Additionally, it allows your janitorial staff to clean efficiently, saving you time and money.
Not to mention mobile devices, doorknobs/handles, headsets, pens, printers, mugs… the list could go on and on. If it’s being touched by multiple people multiple times a day, you can bet it’s got germs on it.

Ornge is pleased to inform you that our Operations Control Centre (OCC) is launching a new Computer Aided Dispatch (CAD) system called Flight Vector; replacing the existing legacy system. This new application will provide the OCC with a significant number of tools to continue to improve patient focus and allow for better planning of medical transportation. In addition, this tool will allow us to standardize how we capture patient’s medical details which will result in efficient data collection from our external stakeholders. While you can expect some minor changes to the process used when requesting patient transports, we are confident this new system will offer your facility a number of benefits: More standardized questions from our Communications Officers to facilitate patient care Better tracking of family and medical escorts for reporting purposes Better situational awareness which will improve resource allocation, and response times On line portal for Trillium Gift of Life Network (TGLN) which will streamline the organ retrieval process Ornge is confident this new system will offer a number of benefits to our partners, stakeholders, and most important, patients. This is the first of three phases and more details will be shared with you in the near future. Should you have any questions about the CAD system, please don’t hesitate to contact us at: FlightVector@ornge.ca.

Because your workers spend the better part of the day at the office, associating positive feelings with being in the workplace becomes necessary. When employees have high morale and satisfaction in the workplace, it follows that they are happier with their jobs.
Clean workplaces appear more dignified and respectable which will help to influence the mindset of your workers and inspire them to act in a more professional manner. This will help them to focus on the tasks at hand and do their best.
Educate and regularly remind your workers of the importance of keeping the workplace clean and why everyone should pitch in and do spot cleaning. Encourage your employees to practise a simple and straightforward cleaning regimen, such as wiping down their office desks (including computer keyboards, mice and telephones) with a sanitising spray once or twice a day; and keeping communal spaces, such as the kitchen, clean (including microwave ovens, refrigerators, sinks), to name a few.
Keeping your workplace clean ensures the longevity of your equipment and furnishings. Investing in high quality, eco-friendly and Worksafe cleaning agents not only helps ensure the effectiveness of the cleaning process, it also safeguards the health and well-being of your workforce, assets, and the environment.
