Rehabilitation Clinic Cleaning for Framingham facilities
Our Framingham program for rehabilitation clinics is written around one risk — direct skin contact with shared equipment all day, with no barrier — MRSA and fungal transfer — and one set of surfaces: treatment tables, mats, therabands, free weights, exercise balls, parallel bars, treadmills.
Facility types we clean under this service:
- Physical Therapy
- Occupational Therapy
- Sports Medicine
- Chiropractic
Usually arranged with the clinic director (pt / ot / speech).
Rehab clinics, nursing homes and assisted living are a core specialty for us — see how we clean them.

What inspectors cite — and how we prevent it
Real, published regulatory findings — every citation links to its source.
CDC Infection Prevention Checklist for Outpatient Settings, Section II item A; CDC Core Practices 5f
Shared equipment reprocessed in a way the manufacturer never specified. CDC's position is that where no cleaning and disinfection instructions exist, the item is not suitable for multi-patient use.
CDC Core Infection Prevention and Control Practices 5b; CDC Infection Prevention Checklist, Section II item A
High-touch surfaces close to the patient — plinth rails, parallel bars, equipment grips — not cleaned and disinfected on a more frequent schedule than other surfaces.
CDC Core Infection Prevention and Control Practices 5f
Clean and soiled equipment stored together, with no physical separation to prevent cross-contamination.
Questions worth asking at the walkthrough
- Will you clean the free weights and cardio equipment every visit?
- What will our staff still need to wipe between patients?
- What logs will we receive?
We answer each of these in writing after the free assessment.
Framingham questions, answered

No. Tank filling, draining, chemical treatment, and disinfection are clinical equipment protocols set by the tank manufacturer, with their own logs and competency requirements, and they belong to your staff. We clean the room around it: floors, drains, walls, benches, handrails, and door hardware, which is where wet-area soil actually accumulates. If the hydrotherapy area shows standing water, a slow drain, or degraded flooring, that goes into our report, because those are environmental conditions and raising them is our job.
Yes, and the absence of checking is itself a finding. Section I item D of the CDC Infection Prevention Checklist expects evidence that the clinic monitors and assesses whether cleaning is consistently and correctly performed. We build that in: dated service logs by zone, a supervisor audit on a defined interval using a written checklist tied to your own protocol, and a corrective-action note whenever something misses. You keep the record. The point is not to grade our crew for you, it is that you can show an assessor a monitoring process that exists on paper.
The written cleaning and disinfection policy covering the gym, treatment tables, and shared equipment, with responsibility assigned line by line; the equipment inventory flagging items with no manufacturer reprocessing instructions; the product list with EPA registration numbers and label contact times; SDS sheets; per-person training and competency records; dated service logs; and supervisor audit results. That set answers Section I items A through D of the CDC Infection Prevention Checklist directly. Dory's carries $2 million in general liability and will name your clinic on the certificate.
