The Vital Role of Hygiene in Healthcare Facilities

 

A properly cleaned medical facility helps prevent infections, promotes patient well-being, and creates a professional atmosphere for caregivers and visitors alike. Medical facilities must be thoroughly cleaned and sanitized on a regular basis as they represent high-risk locations for the spread of germs and infections.

 

At Lemonwood Cleaning, we understand that we are at the front lines of infection control in your facility and play a key role in ensuring we abide by the guidelines set out by Public Health Ontario (Best Practices for Environmental Cleaning for Prevention and Control of Infections in All Health Care Settings).

 

Advantages of Professional Office Cleaning for Healthcare

 

Professional cleaning companies offer significant advantages over relying on medical staff for cleaning duties. Professional cleaning companies use specialized cleaning supplies, have the latest equipment and have staff that are trained specifically in the cleaning requirements of medical facilities. This expertise ensures the deep cleaning that healthcare environments regularly need to maintain a safe and healthy atmosphere. Professional cleaning services can also help prevent the growth and spread of harmful germs and infections, providing an extra layer of safety for patients and staff.
