Doctor’s office cleaning services are more than just emptying the trash cans and wiping down the surfaces. There’s a lot that go into the regularly cleaning of these offices to not only ensure that the area is properly cleaned, but also to prevent any disease or germs from spreading further and infecting visitors and staff.
If you own or manage a doctor’s office, you’ll want to ensure that your cleaning service is checking all the boxes. Are areas being efficiently disinfected? Are biohazard waste baskets being emptied properly? These are questions you need to ask when it’s time to review the cleanliness of your facility.
At EnviroClean Janitorial & Building Services, we’re here to help you see if you’re taking the necessary steps to make your doctor’s office a safe and clean environment for patients and staff.
Cleaning & Disinfecting Regularly
There is a certain level of standards that medical offices must follow in terms of their cleaning and sanitation services, like following CDC guidelines and standards set by CMS (Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services) and OSHA (Occupational Safety and Health Administration). This is to ensure that you’re providing a safe and clean environment on a daily basis.
Your cleaning service should be tackling the high-traffic areas and touchpoints to help mitigate the spread of germs and bacteria, as well as examination rooms and any medical equipment to ensure that they are sanitized. Ensuring that these areas are clean is vital to maintaining a hygienic facility.
Provide Sanitary Options
Ever since COVID-19, hand sanitizer has been a go-to resource for people, but it’s no stranger to the healthcare community. Providing several hand sanitizer dispensers not only helps reduce the risk of germs spreading on touchpoints, it gives people a peace of mind when it comes to entering healthcare facilities.
Ensure the Use of Personal Protective Equipment
Seeing a healthcare facility employee properly masked and gloved can give visitors a feeling of reassurance. Most healthcare facilities require visitors to be masked upon entry, so instilling this guideline can go a long way at reducing the risk of germs, disease, and bacteria from spreading in your facility.
Keep Staff Trained & Up to Date
Keeping your staff informed of the latest safety protocols goes a long way with making sure your facility remains hygienic and disease-free. By regularly training your staff, they can employ these techniques to help keep your facility clean and safe.
