When running a medical office, cleaning is just as important as hiring staff and purchasing equipment. However, an effective medical office cleaning service must have experience working in medical settings. As the premier medical cleaning service in the greater Saint Paul area, the team at Marsden Building Maintenance LLC has a few questions you should ask before hiring a team of cleaners.

3 Things to Ask Your Medical Office Cleaning Service

1. What Products Will You Use?

The EPA also classifies surfaces as either low-level, intermediate-level, or high-level disinfectant areas. Low-level areas are located in the waiting room or receptionist area. High-level areas include medical equipment and items located in patient rooms. These areas are cleaned using bleach or hydrogen peroxide-based sprays. A reputable medical cleaning service should have access to a range of professional cleaning products.

2. How Often Is Cleaning Done? 

How often a room should be cleaned depends on how often it is used and what it is used for. Patient rooms are exposed to a number of bodily fluids and should be cleaned on a daily basis. A low-level room like a receptionist area can be cleaned anywhere from daily to every few days. Professional office cleaning services should allow you to tailor the frequency of each service.

3. How Are Team Members Trained?

Medical awareness training is used to educate cleaners about what is needed to properly clean a facility.  From cleaning products to health regulations, team members need to have the proper knowledge to thoroughly clean your office space. Poorly trained staff risk personal injury or infection to themselves, coworkers, and employees in the facility. OSHA and EPA offer training programs that certify cleaners in medical office cleaning.
