Starting Thursday, the Hendersonville Fire Department will be handing out important cleaning protocols for residents who may have come into contact with COVID-19. The three-page fact sheet covers deep cleaning and disinfecting and other CDC-approved protocols. The information will be disseminated every time Hendersonville Fire and EMS crews go out on a COVID-19 call, whether the patients are positive or not. The campaign covers many topics from how to deep clean a house, to how to disinfect surfaces, to how to make CDC-approved cleaners. The information is especially beneficial if someone in the house has been sick. “We’ll start handing those out on the calls we go on, whether it is suspected or positive case, we feel like if someone was transported from the house, it was a perfect opportunity for us to give them the paperwork and for them to decon the house before that patient came home,” said Hendersonville Fire Chief Scotty Bush.
