Healthcare environments demand far more than standard cleaning practices. This webinar explores why healthcare cleaning is a specialised discipline, highlighting the critical nuances that set it apart from conventional cleaning approaches. From infection prevention and regulatory compliance to high-risk zones, patient vulnerability, equipment sensitivity, and the need for rigorous protocols, healthcare cleaning requires a unique blend of technical skill, precision, and situational awareness.

Participants will gain insights into the core principles of healthcare hygiene, the science behind contamination pathways, and the specialised processes, products and training needed to maintain safe, fit-for-purpose environments. The session also examines the growing responsibilities placed on cleaning teams as healthcare standards evolve, and the essential role these professionals play as part of the broader infection-prevention ecosystem.

This webinar lays the foundation for ISSA Healthcare’s mission: elevating knowledge, capability and consistency across the sector.

    Executive Director, Healthcare Surfaces Institute (HSI)

    Linda Lybert is the Founder and Executive Director of the Healthcare Surfaces Institute (HSI), now a division of ISSA, where she also leads the newly established ISSA Healthcare Division. With 27 years of experience in the healthcare industry, Linda is a nationally recognized expert in infection prevention, with a specialized focus on the role surfaces play in the transmission of healthcare-associated infections (HAIs).

    She developed the Seven Aspects of Surface Selection©, a groundbreaking framework that addresses the complex factors influencing surface safety and hygiene in healthcare environments. Her work has consistently emphasized the need for a multidisciplinary approach, uniting professionals from infection prevention, materials science, design, and healthcare operations.

    To address the fragmented efforts across the industry, Linda founded HSI with a board of global experts, creating the first collaborative dedicated solely to surface-related challenges in healthcare. Under her leadership, the Institute has become a hub for research, education, and innovation aimed at reducing HAIs through improved surface design, selection, and maintenance.

    In 2024, HSI merged with ISSA, and Linda is now spearheading the development of the ISSA Healthcare Division, which provides strategic guidance, training, and resources to healthcare professionals, manufacturers, and building service providers focused on healthcare environmental hygiene.
