Brookline medical offices: how we clean

Facility types we clean under this service:
- Physician Practices
- Urgent Care
- Pediatrics
- Primary Care
Usually arranged with the practice manager.

Inside a Brookline service visit
High-touch surfaces on every visit

- Light switches
- Sink faucet handles and soap dispensers
- Check-in counter and sign-in tablet
- Restroom flush handles, grab bars and door locks
- Scale platform and height rod
How a visit runs
- Agree the room-by-room scope and who disinfects patient-contact surfaces between visits.
- Start each visit in the cleanest areas (offices, consult rooms) and finish in restrooms and soiled utility.
- Clean visibly soiled surfaces before disinfecting; the label claim assumes a pre-cleaned surface.
- Apply an EPA-registered hospital disinfectant and keep each surface wet for its full label contact time.
- Change cloths between rooms using a color-coded system so restroom cloths never reach exam rooms.
A starting schedule
- Exam rooms: patient-contact surfaces between patients (usually clinical staff); full clean daily.
- Waiting room and check-in: high-touch points several times a day in busy clinics, full clean daily.
- Floors: daily damp-mop of hard floors; carpet vacuumed daily and extracted on a periodic schedule.
Practices with early clinics often prefer an evening clean plus a short midday restroom and waiting-room refresh.

The Brookline Public Health Department; its official page is https://www.brooklinema.gov/health. Clinics, hospitals and long-term care facilities are licensed and surveyed by the Massachusetts Department of Public Health, while the local board of health handles local environmental-health matters under the State Sanitary Code and local regulations. Our cleaning records are kept so they serve both.
Your clinical staff. Between-patient turnover happens in minutes while a room is in active use, and it belongs to the person who was in the room. Our scope is scheduled cleaning and disinfection: terminal cleaning of exam rooms at the end of the session, restrooms, waiting areas, hallways, break rooms, floors, and the high-touch surfaces addressed in Section II item A of the CDC Infection Prevention Checklist for Outpatient Settings. We write the split into the schedule required by 29 CFR 1910.1030(d)(4)(i), so nothing sits in a gap between the two teams.
Healthcare-specific training, before they enter a clinical space. Section I item C of the CDC Infection Prevention Checklist for Outpatient Settings expects that personnel who clean are trained on and provided the PPE needed to avoid exposure both to infectious agents and to the disinfectant chemicals themselves. Our crews are trained on bloodborne pathogens, clean-to-dirty work direction, color-coded microfiber to prevent transfer between rooms, and the label requirements of the specific products in your building. Jeneva Thomas, who founded the company, brings 22 years of clinical experience to that training.
A binder and a digital copy containing the written cleaning and decontamination schedule required by 29 CFR 1910.1030(d)(4)(i), the product list with EPA registration numbers, current SDS sheets, label contact times, crew training records, and dated service logs showing what was cleaned and when. Surveyors rarely dispute that cleaning happens; they ask you to prove the method and the frequency were defined and then followed. Dory's carries $2 million in general liability, and we will issue a certificate naming your practice on request.
