Medical Office Cleaning Central New Jersey

Commercial Janitorial is well versed in the rules and standards as laid down by the State of New Jersey's Department of Health. Our cleaning services are provided by a team of professional and insured cleaning technicians who are aware of the high standards of hygiene and disinfection which are required for any health care facility. We also realize that NJDOH may issue penalties to health care facilities that are not kept in pristine hygienic conditions among other reasons.

Commercial Janitorial's teams are also fully conversant with the State of New Jersey's Public Employees Occupational Safety and Health Standards for sanitation in the fields of housekeeping and waste removal. Cleaning in medical and other health-related offices should strictly adhere to the sanitation standards prevalent in Central New Jersey to prevent the spread of disease in susceptible environments and among already ill populations.

The people who are employed to clean a medical office should have a basic understanding of how microorganisms and pathogens work and how the transference of bacteria and viruses can cause disease. Professionally trained medical office cleaners will also understand how medical cleaning differs from regular office cleaning and how important it is to maintain the sanitation in places like exam rooms and restrooms to prevent the transfer of blood-borne pathogens.

Creating a hygienic and sanitized environment

A fresh and calm ambiance is created when a medical office is cleaned according to stringent standards. A clean environment will be inviting and welcoming to patients who are already overwhelmed by illness. A medical office must be cleaned and disinfected periodically to make sure that any viruses, bacteria or other harmful pathogens do not cause an infestation in the community. For the staff and medical personal who work daily in a medical office it is of vital importance to their well being and health that medical offices be cleaned regularly by cleaning services who understand how to disinfect and properly prevent disease by cleaning. This facilitates healthy working conditions for the doctors, nurses and other staff as well as the patients who will be spending a lot of time in the medical office.

Disinfection and disease control

Keeping the floors cleaned with the help of sanitizers and disinfectants is very important in a place where dozens of sick people will converge daily. These people are often already immuno-compromised and cannot withstand further exposure to bacteria or germs. Also, Commercial Janitorial's team of dedicated cleaners will make sure to keep all surfaces wiped with dis-infections, especially chairs and door handles, which are often touched by people suffering from an infection.

Daily maintenance of restrooms

Restrooms are a place which can easily spread infections and disease so it is particularly important to pay attention to the sanitation and hygienic cleaning standards of the restrooms in any medical office. Toilets, urinals, sinks, showers, taps and other restroom fixtures need to be thoroughly cleaned, washed and disinfected according to the highest sanitation standards to maintain the health and well-being of staff and patients.

Daily cleaning of medical offices and exam rooms in Central New Jersey

Medical office should be cleaned, vacuumed and mopped with a disinfectant cleaning solution. All fixtures and fittings should be dusted while the trash is disposed of correctly. Garbage bags are replaced and if needed furniture is moved to clean under it during periodic deep cleaning. Upholstery and other soft furnishings should also be vacuumed and any surfaces that come in contact with the hands should be wiped down with disinfectant.

Disposal of hazardous materials

In order to prevent the spread of any blood-borne or bodily fluid pathogens, professional medical office cleaning services will carefully dispose of hazardous materials such as used syringes or bodily waste. Waste will be separated and disposed of in an appropriate way and according to New Jersey's Health and Safety Standards. Used test tubes, samples, syringes and any bodily waste products must be disposed of correctly without being allowed to come into direct contact with anyone.

Keeping the HVAC system free from contaminants in a medical office

The HVAC system keeps people comfortable in the always humid environment of Central New Jersey. The summer heat and winter cold are also kept at bay and away from patients who may already be suffering from uncomfortable illnesses. However, it is essential to keep the HVAC system clean at all times as pathogens can spread through the ducts into all parts of the medical office building.

In addition to general medical cleaning we can also provide doctor's offices, hospitals and other patient facilities with floor care, carpet cleaning, upholstery cleaning, and window cleaning. Smaller health care facilities like private practice Dr's offices, birthing centers, outpatient care and drop in clinics require their own specialized cleaning protocols. Larger health-care facilities like medical labs, public hospitals, private hospitals, children's hospitals and emergency room clinics.

Medical Cleaning Sterilization and Disinfection

Sterilization or disinfection is common requirement for cleaning most areas of a medical facility. Sterilization refers to cleaning with powerful chemicals that destroy all known microbial life. Disinfection is different in that it means killing specific types of pathogens and microorganisms. If required with either procedure you will be using hospital grade disinfectants.

Medical Facility Cleaning Equipment

We pay special attention to mops, cleaning cloths, and buckets. These items are to be cleaned every day, and sometimes after each use. Most medical facilities are cleaned using microfiber cleaning cloths and flat mops, as there is less chance of cross-contamination. It may also be a requirement to use a true HEPA filtered vacuum. A HEPA vacuum cleaner is necessary to protect indoor air quality and prevent microorganisms from becoming airborne.

Medical Cleaning Rules, Regulations and Laws

When Commercial Janitorial staff is cleaning a medical facility, they must assume that every surface of the physician's office, dentist office or medical office they clean poses a potential risk to themselves, the nurses, doctors, medical staff, patients, and visitors to the facility. Commercial Janitorial staff will follow the regulations established by OSHA (Occupational Safety and Health Administration) for mitigating exposure to blood borne pathogens.

Commercial Janitorial will wear proper personal protective equipment (PPE), which includes latex or rubber gloves and possibly eye protection. Wearing PPE assures that cleaning staff will not touch contaminated surfaces and also protects them from splashes and spills of contaminated items like lab samples.

Medical Cleaning Scheduling

Cleaning hospitals is a challenge because often they are open 24 hours a day. Large area cleaning, such as hard floors or carpets in the hospital, may involve blocking off areas of the hospital until the project is completed. The same holds true for public rest rooms in the hospital. Hospitals, Intensive care units, assisted living facilities and nursing homes may require mitigation of noise caused by vacuum cleaners. In these cases, quiet vacuum cleaners may be used. Many health care facilities are now requiring vacuuming hard surface floors opposed to dust mopping because vacuuming reduces the amount of dust and other particulates that can become airborne throughout the physicians office, medical clinic or hospital.
