ABSTRACT:
A cross-contamination management system for remotely monitoring of personnel and objects and their use of sanitation facilities in adherence to a managed process with cleansing and sanitizing requirements generally includes a plurality of wireless communication devices with a first number of the wireless communication devices being disposed within or adjacent cleaning devices and operative for monitoring and reporting functional status and operation thereof. A second number of the wireless communication devices disposed in tags suitable for carrying by individuals or attaching to objects. A third number of wireless communication devices being configured to determine if a cleaning device associated with the one of the third number of wireless communication devices is to be ascribed to one of the tags and reporting thereon by an output signal. A fourth number of wireless communication devices being disposed at access points to determine if an object or person traversing access points associated with the fourth number of wireless communication devices is to be ascribed to one of the second wireless communication devices and reporting therein by an output signal.
