Clean a vomit or norovirus event in a food facility

Practice the sequence you already learned for “Clean a vomit or norovirus event in a food facility” until the order feels automatic. Practice CDC / FDA norovirus cleanup from food-protection training. A standard wipe with all-purpose cleaner is not enough, and food in the splash zone is discarded.

1. Clear guests and workers from the immediate area.
2. Don the taught PPE.
3. Block the splash zone.
4. Remove vomit with disposable tools.
5. Do not use the vacuum on vomit.
6. Disinfect with a norovirus-effective product at the required concentration and contact time.
7. Discard uncovered food in the splash radius.
8. Discard single-service items in the splash radius.
9. Wash hands and change any linens that were in the area.
