What rehabilitation clinic cleaning covers in Grafton
Our Grafton 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
- Speech Therapy
- Chiropractic
Usually arranged with the clinic director (pt / ot / speech).
Rehabilitation clinics and senior care facilities are one of our core specialties — 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 I Environmental Cleaning item A
No written policies and procedures for routine cleaning and disinfection of the gym, treatment tables and shared equipment, including who is responsible for what.
CDC Infection Prevention Checklist for Outpatient Settings, Section I item D
Cleaning is never monitored or assessed — no evidence the clinic checks that it is consistently and correctly performed.
CDC Infection Prevention Checklist for Outpatient Settings, non-critical item definition; CDC Core Infection Prevention and Control Practices 5f
Treatment tables, mats, weights and bands that contact intact skin are wiped but not cleaned and then disinfected between patients at the level the degree of soiling requires.
Inside a Grafton service visit
Where contamination concentrates
- Free weights, dumbbells and kettlebells
- Resistance bands and handles
- Treadmill and bike handles and consoles
- Parallel bars and balance equipment
- Therapy balls and foam rollers
- Check-in counter
Our sequence, step by step
- Agree which equipment staff wipe between patients and which the cleaning crew handles at end of day.
- Clean and disinfect treatment tables and mats with products compatible with vinyl and upholstery.
- Wipe down weights, bars and cardio equipment handles and consoles.
- Keep gym cloths separate from restroom cloths.
- Log areas completed and any damaged equipment surfaces we notice.
A starting schedule
- Treatment tables and shared equipment: between patients by staff, full clean daily.
- Restrooms and changing areas: daily or more often.
- Waiting room: daily.
Rehabilitation clinics are typically cleaned after the last appointment, since the gym is in use all day.
What you keep on file
- Gym and treatment-room checklist
- Product list with EPA registration numbers and contact times
- Safety Data Sheets
- Signed service logs
Questions worth asking at the walkthrough
- Which products will you use on our table upholstery and mats?
- Will you clean the free weights and cardio equipment every visit?
- What will our staff still need to wipe between patients?
We answer each of these in writing after the free assessment.

We treat the gym as a contact-transfer environment rather than an office. Every surface a patient's bare skin meets, including plinth vinyl, mat surfaces, exercise ball skins, bench pads, and the floor of the mat area, is cleaned and then disinfected on a defined interval with an EPA-registered product chosen for that surface. The mat floor gets a wet process rather than a dry mop that redistributes skin debris. Written policies naming the gym, the treatment tables, and the shared equipment are precisely what Section I item A of the CDC Infection Prevention Checklist asks a clinic to hold.
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.
