Supporting your infection-control program
Healthcare facilities already run infection-prevention programs, with environmental services teams and written procedures. Outside support is useful when an event exceeds what in-house staff are equipped or staffed to handle: a major blood or bodily fluid release, a sewage backup into clinical space, flooding, an outbreak that requires facility-wide cleaning, or the decommissioning of a closed practice.
We work with clinics, physician and dental offices, urgent care centers, outpatient surgery centers, dialysis centers, laboratories and similar facilities.
How projects work
- Coordinate with your infection preventionist, practice manager or facilities lead, and follow your written protocols and approved products where specified.
- Plan around patients. Affected areas are closed and work is scheduled to minimize disruption to care.
- Remove contaminated porous materials such as ceiling tiles, privacy curtains and damaged upholstery.
- Clean and disinfect using EPA-registered hospital disinfectants appropriate to the concern, applied according to label contact times.
- Verify with visual inspection and, if you want objective data, ATP surface testing.
- Document areas, products, contact times and results for your records.
Practice closures and relocations
When a practice closes or moves, rooms, equipment and storage areas often need thorough cleaning before the space is returned to a landlord or handed to a new tenant. Regulated medical waste, sharps and pharmaceuticals must be disposed of through proper channels, and patient records require secure handling. We coordinate the cleaning portion and work alongside your waste vendor and records custodian.
What we don't do
Hospital inpatient units and operating rooms are typically handled by the hospital's own environmental services under its accreditation program. We support those facilities on special projects and events, not routine terminal cleaning.
Common questions
Do you use hospital-grade disinfectants?
Yes. We use EPA-registered disinfectants appropriate for the organisms of concern and follow label instructions, including contact times.
Can you follow our protocols?
Yes. Where you have written procedures or required products, we follow them.
Do you handle regulated medical waste?
Regulated medical waste from a biohazard event is packaged and transported for disposal by licensed handlers, according to state rules.
