Rex Morrison is president of the nonprofit Process Cleaning for Healthy Facilities (PC4HF). Morrison is formerly the housekeeping training coordinator for the Washoe County School District (WCSD) in Reno, Nevada, one of the few districts in the nation to achieve ISO 9001 certification due to its focus on quality and standardized process. He pioneered Process Cleaning for Healthy Schools (PCHS) in 100 schools in Washoe County, and more recently developed PC4HF. Morrison is also a Cleaning Industry Management Standard (CIMS) ISSA Certification Expert (ICE) ready to provide training and consulting services to cleaning organizations interested in complying with and preparing to be certified to CIMS.

When it comes to soils, commercial kitchens and foodservice areas are some of the most challenging environments with which to deal.
