Ensure your cleaning partner can handle the specialized cleaning needs of your healthcare facility.
We understand that hospitals require a level of cleanliness that goes beyond standard janitorial services. Specialized healthcare cleaning is essential to maintaining a safe and healthy environment for patients, staff, and visitors. While routine cleaning and disinfection are crucial, other, less common services can greatly improve a hospital’s overall cleanliness and appeal. Here are some specialty cleaning solutions that your healthcare facility should consider.
Floor Stripping and Waxing for High-Traffic Areas
Hospital floors endure heavy foot traffic, from staff and patients to visitors. Over time, this can lead to wear and tear that affects the appearance and safety of the floors. Floor stripping and waxing involves removing old layers of wax and grime, thoroughly cleaning the surface, and applying a fresh coat of protective wax. This process not only restores the shine of the floors but also ensures they remain slip-resistant, reducing the risk of accidents.
KleenMark can work with your schedule to complete a hard floor strip and wax project when it’s best for your facility. Our cleaning team is flexible and works quickly and efficiently to ensure your operations continue to run smoothly.
Deep Carpet Extraction to Maintain a Hygienic Environment
Carpets in hospital settings, such as waiting areas and administrative offices, can easily accumulate dust, allergens, and stains. Deep carpet extraction uses advanced equipment to thoroughly clean and sanitize carpets, reaching deep into the fibers to remove embedded dirt and contaminants. Regular carpet extraction improves the facility’s look and promotes a healthier environment by reducing allergens and bacteria.
Exterior Power Washing for a Welcoming Appearance
The exterior of a hospital often sets the first impression for patients and visitors. Power washing services can clean building facades, sidewalks, parking lots, and other exterior surfaces to remove dirt, grime, and mildew buildup. Regular exterior maintenance helps keep the facility looking professional and well-maintained, ensuring a welcoming environment for everyone.
Window Cleaning to Enhance Natural Light
Clear and spotless windows are essential for creating a bright and uplifting atmosphere within a hospital. Professional window cleaning services ensure that both interior and exterior windows are free from smudges, streaks, and dirt, allowing more natural light to filter into the building. Clean windows also contribute to a cleaner, more hygienic feel throughout the facility.
Routine Disinfection for Infection Control
Regular disinfection is a standard practice in healthcare settings, but it’s important to ensure that it covers more than just high-touch areas. Comprehensive disinfection services should include sanitizing less obvious spaces such as ventilation ducts, upholstery, and behind medical equipment. An experienced cleaning team will use hospital-grade disinfectants that are effective against a wide range of pathogens, helping to prevent the spread of infections and ensuring the safety of patients and staff.
Cleanliness Verification
Successful third-party audits and avoiding fines are important aspects of hospital cleaning services. KleenMark can help measure and verify cleanliness with an advanced ATP tester from Kikkoman Biochemifa Company. The Lumitester Smart measures ATP, ADP, and AMP, providing a full picture of cleanliness. This A3 method helps maintain the highest hygiene standards in your facility. Contact us to discuss whether the Lumitester is a good fit for your organization.
