Site:
Housekeeping-Outbreak Prevention and Response Plan (OPRP)
|
Violation:
The OPRP had been undergoing revisions with the newest release around the end of October. Some items in the plan must be updated to comply with the VSP Operations Manual section 9.0. For example: the plan described continuous disinfection begins when the ship reaches reportable acute gastroenteritis (AGE) cases of 1.5% or above among all onboard (passengers and crew members), as opposed to separating the response threshold between passengers or crew members; and there were no procedures for informing embarking crew members following an outbreak or those crew members onboard during the outbreak.
|
Recommendation:
Ensure each vessel has a written OPRP that details standard procedures and policies to specifically address AGE onboard. Include the following in the written OPRP: (1) Duties and responsibilities of each department and their staff for all the passenger and crew public areas; (2) Steps in outbreak management and control and the trigger for required action at each step. Ensure the triggers address a graduated approach to outbreak management in response to increasing case counts; (3) Disinfectant products or systems used, including the surfaces or items the disinfectants will be applied to, concentrations, and required contact times. Ensure the disinfectant products or systems are effective against human norovirus or an acceptable surrogate (e.g., caliciviruses); (4) Procedures for informing passengers and crew members of the outbreak. Ensure this section also includes procedures for notification of passengers embarking the vessel following an outbreak voyage or segment of a voyage; (5) Procedures for returning the vessel to normal operating conditions after an outbreak; (6) Procedures to protect the passengers and crew from exposure to disinfectants, if not already included in the vessel's safety management system. Ensure this protection includes: (a) Material safety data sheets (MSDSs); (b) Personal protective equipment for crew; (c) Health and safety procedures to minimize respiratory and dermal exposures to both passengers and crew.
