Cleaning Medical Office Space (MOB) can be Challenging…
Cleaning medical space offers it’s own set of challenges for the office administrator or property manager. Unfortunately many cleaning services are not familiar with the specifications associated with medical space cleaning and therefore try to take a one size fits all approach. Medical office
space (MOB) is a more costly service then your typical building maintenance programs. When a general office space is cleaned there is a considerable amount of workspace, a few bathrooms in the common areas and a community kitchen.
Office space is typical and somewhat straightforward in the techniques used to get the space cleaned. With Medical space the areas to be cleaned can vary dramatically from one facility to the next and even within the same building. For example, a multi- specialty medical practice may have an outpatient procedure area, administrative offices, exam rooms and a lab. Each of those areas requires a different set of procedures and products. It is also important to take into consideration the patients that will be visiting the facility. The focus of cleaning may be approached differently in a pediatric office where the patients may spend time near or even on the floor then patients in a surgery center where infection is the greater focus.
Finding a cleaning service that thoroughly understands the specific needs of an MOB is critical. Gator Cleaning Solutions has been partnering with office managers, administrators and property manager for nearly a decade to find needs based solutions to ensure proper cleaning procedures are accomplished.
Top Five Things to Consider when cleaning a MOB:
- What services are being performed in the Medical space? Surgery, Urgent Care, Lab work…
What type of patients will be visiting the facility most often? Children, Elderly, Terminally ill or immunosuppressed…- What are the hours of operation and what is the best time to clean? Sleep labs will typically be cleaned during the day, Emergency Rooms need to be cleaned in waves to avoid any disruption of service…
- What are the most effective products for the specific environment? Disinfectant vs. Sanitizers, HEPA filtered vacuum, color coded microfiber rags and mops to avoid the spread of contaminants…
- Is there a protocol in place for a potential Terminal
Clean? If there is a confirmed case of a resistant bacteria there are specific measure that should be taken.
Be sure to ask the right questions and create a plan that will give your facility, patients and staff the most effective cleaning service to ensure a productive and healthy environment!
