Clinics and healthcare

A clinic is not an office with a sink in it. Treatment rooms, waiting areas, staff areas and washrooms are cleaned to different frequencies with different equipment, and the inspector will ask for the records. We clean eleven practices across Cardiff and the Vale to the National Standards and keep the paperwork so you do not have to.

Clinical areas are cleaned with colour-coded cloths and mops that never leave them, with a hospital-grade disinfectant on hand-contact surfaces, treatment chairs and couches, worktops, sinks and taps, and the floor damp-mopped every visit. Waiting rooms, reception and staff areas get an office clean with a higher washroom frequency. Clinical waste is handled by your contractor; we do not touch sharps or clinical bins beyond the bag.

Every operative on a clinical site has infection-control training on top of the standard induction and a current DBS, and the specification maps each room to a frequency and a method from the National Standards. The monthly audit scores against that standard and the report is formatted for a CQC, HIW or GDC inspection; several of our practices simply hand it over.
