Storing Clean Uniforms

Question:

At the present time, we store our clean uniforms in our toilet.  They are in a cupboard with each practitioner having their own shelve.  We have been told that for infection control this is not acceptable because when the staff use the toilet, the spray from the toilet being flushed will land on the uniforms.

Would it be acceptable to put doors on the cupboard?  I find this to be easier than trying to find a space in our staff room for these uniforms.  I would appreciate any help that anyone can offer.

Answer:

When I did legionella training it was said to close the toilet lid when flushing this should resolve your problem. 

From today's reports make sure you don't have a hand dryer use paper towels.
