Robotic sanitising Care Homes and Health Care Facilities

该项目将把现有的经过测试的技术部署到抗击COVID 19的前线，即安老院舍。我们计划在20间安老院舍进行实地测试，以改善清洁程序，尽量使用机器人吸尘器，减少清洁人员与安老院舍住客及员工之间的接触，同时改善环境清洁。我们亦会测试使用拖把的成效该项目将持续四个月，分四个阶段进行：* 部署前和动员2至3周 * 部署2周 * 实施和测试10周 * 报告2周我们将在项目开始后约6至8周得出初步结果该项目本身将改善牛津郡20家养老院的清洁度，并将测试成本-在护理院部署机器人吸尘器的有效性和临床效果。在项目结束时，我们将提供：* 关于如何使用机器人吸尘器减少清洁工和居民之间的人际互动并改善社交距离的明确协议 * 测量与当前方法相比，使用机器人吸尘器减少护理院灰尘和寄生虫的有效性 * 使用拖把工具消毒和最大限度减少病原体，特别是COVID 19的明确协议

This project will deploy an existing and tested technology to the front line of the fight against COVID 19, namely care homes.We are planning to run a live test in 20 care homes to refine the cleaning processes to maximise the use of robotic vacuum cleaning to reduce human contact between cleaning staff and care home residents and staff while improving cleanliness.We will also test the effectiveness of the use of our mopping tool to disinfect and reduce COVID 19 prevalence within care homes, this without the need for extra staffing and costs.The project will last four months and will be in four phases:* Pre-deployment and Mobilisation 2 to 3 weeks* Deployment 2 weeks* Implementation and Testing 10 weeks* Reporting 2 weeksWe will have initial findings after about 6 to 8 weeks from the start of the projectThe project in itself will improve cleanliness in 20 care homes in Oxfordshire and will test both cost-effectiveness and clinical effectiveness of the deployment of robotic vacuum cleaners in care homes.At the end of the project, we will have delivered:* A clear protocol of how to use robotic vacuum cleaners to reduce human interaction between cleaners and residents and improve social distancing* Measure the effectiveness of using robotic vacuum cleaners to reduce dust and parasites in care homes compared to current methods* A clear protocol to use mopping tool to disinfect and minimise pathogen, particularly COVID 19
