During the winter month, doctors offices, urgent care facilities and hospitals are busy with adults and children with colds and flu. It is important that these facilities are cleaned nightly to spread any of the viruses that walk through the door. Did you know that on average, adults get two to three colds per year and children might come down with as many as six to 10, according to the CDC, prompting millions of visits to healthcare providers annually.
Not only is important for the facilities to be clean for the sick patients, but for the doctors, nurses and administrative staff to stay healthy. The staff members likely do a routing cleaning before and after patients are in the procedure rooms a commercial cleaner can sanitize to reduce germs and disinfect to kill germs.
A nightly routine done by commercial cleaning is vital for facilities that need sanitizing and disinfecting to protect patients and staff from contagions that can linger on surfaces such as door handles, counter-tops, toilets, sink handles and other high-contact areas.
