How you can implement medical cleaning practices into other residential and commercial cleaning solutions

31 Mar 2025 2:42 PM | Terry Dillon

Of course we would all like to think that when we go to the hospital for whatever reason whether it be for personal reasons or to visit a family member, or going to the doctors office, we would all like to thing that these places are extremely clean.  This is where proper cleaning and disinfecting practices come into play, regardless if its a patients room or even the waiting are, these high traffic areas get cleaned multiple times a day every day.

But what about residential or commercial areas, these areas are still high touch surface areas and can still possess the same harmful germs and viruses that medical facilities carry.  Just think about all the people that come in and out of commercial areas, sneezine, coughing, blowing their nose, touching all the door handles, and other high touch surface areas.  The same goes for residential areas, when you go out in public and you touch other surfaces, money, shaking peoples hands, your bringing all these things back with you to your residence.

One way to start implementing medical cleaning practices into other residential and commercial cleaning is to start using hospital-grade disinfectants and other registered cleaning products. Not only by introducing better cleaning products, but also better cleaning practices, such as regularly cleaning high touch surface areas and areas that don't often get cleaned at all.  Of course good handwashing practices goes a long way when it comes to preventing the spread of viruses and germs.

If you would ever like to find out more information on cleaning techniques or if you need a directory to help you search or locate a specific cleaning crew or location, or other service, you can always visit ijcsa.org for all your cleaning needs.
