A CDC assessment of 438 long-term care facilities in 2020 found 18.1% were unaware of the contact time for the disinfectants they were using — and 206 of those facilities were assisted living. The failure mode is wiping a surface that dries in thirty seconds when the label requires several minutes, so the kill claim is never met. We standardize on a short product list, print the contact time on the bottle label and the cart, train to that number, and check it during supervisor rounds by asking the cleaner to state it. If a surface dries early it is re-wetted, not counted.

Dory's Cleaning Services Inc. carries $2 million general liability, and we issue a certificate naming the residence as additional insured before the first shift. Workers' compensation covers our employees — we staff with employees rather than subcontractors, which keeps liability and training accountability in one place. What we do not claim is a license or certification to clean healthcare facilities, because Massachusetts does not issue one; any vendor telling you otherwise is describing something that does not exist. What is verifiable is insurance, employee training records, and documented protocols, and those are what we put in front of your risk manager.

29 CFR 1910.1030 governs it, and it carries weight in this sector: federal OSHA issued 9 citations across 3 assisted living inspections between October 2024 and September 2025, with $37,006 in penalties — the largest penalty total of any standard for assisted living. Our staff are trained and equipped for environmental decontamination of spills: PPE, absorb, clean, then disinfect with an EPA-registered product at label contact time, with contaminated waste bagged per your regulated-waste policy. If the incident involves a resident who is still being attended, care staff manage the resident first and call us to the surface afterward.
