Precise medical cleaning is necessary to protect the safety of patients and staff in a healthcare environment. As a manager for a medical facility where invasive procedures and surgeries are performed, you know that terminal cleaning is a must to thoroughly disinfect the area. The commercial cleaning experts from Compass Cleaning Solutions in Tempe specialize in providing these and other medical cleaning services to healthcare organizations throughout Arizona.

Here, their team explains the advantages of professional terminal cleaning:

• Prevents the Spread of Infection: Terminal cleaning is required in operating rooms because when a patient undergoes surgery, their open incisions put them at a greater level of exposure to surrounding bacteria and germs. Likewise, the risk of the patient spreading infections such as MRSA increases as well. Rooms receiving terminal cleanings between procedures become thoroughly sanitized to eliminate the odds of cross-contamination, both to and from patients.

• Uses Safe Products & Supplies: The sensitive nature of medical environments warrants the use of specific products, cleaning agents and procedures. By using tools such as disposable microfiber cloths and new flat mop pads for every job, medical cleaning professionals prevent cross contamination of harmful bacteria from one area to another. They also implement organic materials to avoid exposing patients to allergens. Additionally, the cleaners and tools used are gentle enough to safely clean devices such as MRI and X-ray machines.
• Maintains Compliance: HIPAA regulations require hospitals and other healthcare organizations to ensure patient confidentiality.  The Compass teams are educated about patient privacy and federal regulations. In addition, when you work with qualified medical cleaners trained to comply with all OSHA regulations, you’ll have peace of mind knowing your environment is not only safe for your patients, doctors and nursing staff, but also fully compliant with all safety and privacy regulations.
