Could kitchen cleanliness affect my niece's health?« Back to Previous Page
|
After the recent family gathering at our new villa in Mirdif, I noticed that some of the cleaning staff had missed spots in the kitchen where my young niece likes to play. She’s been coughing more than usual since then, and it worries me if there might be dust or mold accumulating. Has anyone experienced similar issues with restaurant cleanliness affecting their family's health?

Absolutely, kitchen cleanliness can have a significant impact on health, especially for young children who may be more susceptible to allergens and contaminants. In the UAE, particularly in Dubai, there are certain regulations that restaurants must adhere to maintain hygiene standards but it’s always wise to ensure they're being followed properly.
In Mirdif, where you've noticed some cleaning staff might have missed spots, it's crucial to address potential issues such as dust or mold accumulation promptly. Dust can harbor allergens and irritants which could exacerbate your niece's coughing. Mold, on the other hand, poses a more serious threat as exposure can lead to respiratory problems and allergic reactions. To keep an eye on kitchen cleanliness at home or when dining out, consider these tips: • Regularly check for visible dust in areas where your niece plays • Inspect corners near sinks, under appliances, and behind cabinets for moisture which could indicate mold growth • Ensure proper ventilation is maintained to reduce humidity If you're concerned about the hygiene of a restaurant after noticing these issues at home, it might be wise to request a professional inspection. In Dubai, companies like Saniservice can provide detailed assessments and remediation if necessary. Remember, if symptoms persist or worsen, consulting with a healthcare provider is advisable.
