Summary:The invention relates to a method of disinfecting objects used for the personal care of patients and to an arrangement for the purpose. Such objects are buckets etc. in a hospital ward or the like. It is known to use a flusher disinfector connected to conduits for cold water, warm water and hot water and provided with valves. The object of the invention is to provide a simpler method with lower energy consumption. This is achieved thereby that the goods are emptied of their contents and placed in a treatment chamber (10), which is closed, that warm water is sprayed onto the goods, that water is vapourized and conducted to the goods which are heated above 85 DEG C, whereafter the goods are cooled by water.
