Medical Office Cleaning

Health­care facil­i­ties must remain san­i­tary and safe at all times to pro­mote and ensure the well-being of all patients, nurs­es, doc­tors, and guests. Because germs run ram­pant in these facil­i­ties, there are numer­ous chal­lenges and reg­u­la­tions unique to med­ical clean­ing pro­ce­dures. Health­care providers who fail to abide by these stan­dards not only put the health of their employ­ees and patients at risk but may also be sub­ject to legal action. There­fore, each of these facil­i­ties requires med­ical clean­ing solu­tions and infec­tion con­trol pro­to­cols that com­ply with all cur­rent reg­u­la­tions for the sake of their rep­u­ta­tion, their peo­ple, and their practice. 

The Budd Group pro­vides clean­ing and infec­tion con­trol ser­vices for health­care facil­i­ties in rooms such as offices, cafe­te­rias, and lob­bies (not patient rooms, ORs, or oth­er areas where patients are seen by nurs­es and doctors).

What Is Involved in Med­ical Office Cleaning?

Med­ical office clean­ing refers to the actions tak­en to remove and pre­vent harm­ful for­eign mate­ri­als from health­care facil­i­ty offices (as well as oth­er areas that don’t direct­ly involve patient care). The goal of these efforts is to cul­ti­vate a ster­ile envi­ron­ment, often via the use of dis­in­fec­tants. These actions include things like spray­ing and wip­ing down all sur­faces inside the room (e.g., lob­by, office, cafe­te­ria), pow­er wash­ing the facility’s exte­ri­or, deep clean­ing floors, prop­er­ly remov­ing waste from the premis­es, and so on.

Those who per­form med­ical clean­ing tasks must receive thor­ough train­ing and fol­low all clean­ing guide­lines for health­care facil­i­ties. These oper­a­tional stan­dards are out­lined by orga­ni­za­tions such as the Cen­ter for Dis­ease Con­trol (CDC), Cen­ters for Medicare and Med­ic­aid Ser­vices (CMS), and the Occu­pa­tion­al Safe­ty and Health Admin­is­tra­tion (OSHA). Oth­er groups like the U.S. Green Build­ing Coun­cil (USG­BC) have out­lined health­care clean­ing stan­dards and rec­om­men­da­tions to imple­ment more envi­ron­men­tal­ly friend­ly clean­ing prod­ucts. Addi­tion­al­ly, because med­ical clean­ing per­son­nel are fre­quent­ly around health­care infor­ma­tion, they must also under­stand the guide­lines set forth in the Health Insur­ance Porta­bil­i­ty and Account­abil­i­ty Act (HIPAA).

Infec­tion Control

With­out prop­er med­ical clean­ing solu­tions, health­care facil­i­ties can become hotbeds for bac­te­ria and their spread. That’s why infec­tion con­trol is a cru­cial com­po­nent of The Budd Group’s med­ical clean­ing offer­ings. As described by the CDC, ​“Infec­tion con­trol pre­vents or stops the spread of infec­tions in health­care set­tings.” The orga­ni­za­tion pro­vides infor­ma­tion on how infec­tions spread, how to keep them from spread­ing, and out­lines spe­cif­ic rec­om­men­da­tions for var­i­ous types of health­care facil­i­ties. Our med­ical clean­ing staff is well versed on these mat­ters, ensur­ing that our clients’ facil­i­ties remain safe and san­i­tary for all per­son­nel and patients.

The Budd Group Difference

At The Budd Group, we under­stand that each facil­i­ty with­in the health­care indus­try has its own needs and chal­lenges. Rather than offer a one-size-fits-all com­mer­cial clean­ing solu­tion for our clients, we work with each one indi­vid­u­al­ly to deter­mine the most effi­cient ways to main­tain their facil­i­ties, pre­vent the spread of infec­tious dis­eases, and com­ply with all regulations.
