(5) Package and sterilize reusable instruments that may have come in contact with non-intact skin or mucosal surfaces. (6) Decontaminate the workstation and procedure area. E. Prevention of Cross Contamination: The practitioner shall maintain a clean and sanitary environment. All solid surfaces and objects in the procedure area and the decontamination and sterilization area that have come into contact with the client or the materials used in performing the body art, including, but not limited to, chairs, armrests, tables, countertops, and trays, shall be immediately decontaminated after each use and then disinfected by application of a Madacide by spraying the disinfectant directly onto the surface, let sit for 3 minutes and then wipe down with a disposable paper towel while wearing single use gloves. The surfaces and objects in the procedure area shall be disinfected again before use if the area has been used for any activity following its previous disinfection. The practitioner shall wear disposable gloves on both hands when touching, decontaminating, or handling a surface, object or instrument that is soiled or that is potentially soiled with human blood. An instrument or other reusable item that comes into contact with non-intact skin or mucosal surfaces shall either be single use or be washed, disinfected, packaged, and sterilized after each procedure. Sterilization shall be accomplished pursuant to the procedures established in Section 119315 by steam autoclave. An instrument or reusable item that does not come into contact with non-intact skin or mucosal surfaces shall be washed with a solution of soap and water, using a brush that is small enough to clean the interior surfaces, and decontaminated after each procedure. A reusable item that cannot be immediately washed, disinfected, and sterilized following completion of the body art procedure shall be placed in a basin of water with or without detergent. Sterile instrument packs shall be evaluated before use, and if the integrity of a pack is compromised in any way, including, but not limited to, being torn, punctured, wet, or having evidence of potential moisture contamination, the instrument pack shall be discarded or reprocessed before use. No food, drink, tobacco product, or personal effects are permitted in the procedure area. The practitioner shall not eat, drink, or smoke while performing a procedure. If a client requests to eat, drink, or smoke, the procedure shall be stopped and the procedure site shall be protected from possible contamination while the client leaves the procedure area to eat, drink, or smoke. A product applied to the skin prior to tattooing or application of permanent cosmetics, including, but not limited to, stencils and marking and transfer agents, including pens, shall be single use and discarded into a waste container at the end of the procedure unless the product can be disinfected for reuse.
