Abstract: The present invention relates to a cleanliness monitoring method for enhancing hygiene in a room or area of a facility, especially a hospital. After cleaning, the level of cleanliness is verified via real time biological and/or microbiological measurements using a hand held device such as an ATP luminometer. Until the desired level of cleanliness has been achieved, cleaning is repeated. Motion sensors determine the activity level of a room (such as a bathroom) and communicate enhanced cleaning needs centrally or to the hand-held device. The hand-held device can be a smartphone or tablet provided with an add-on module.
