The Northborough Board of Health; its official page is https://www.northboroughma.gov/board-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.

No. Semi-critical items, meaning anything that contacts mucous membranes or non-intact skin, require at least high-level disinfection after thorough pre-cleaning, per the CDC Infection Prevention Checklist for Outpatient Settings, High-Level Disinfection items A through C. That is a trained clinical reprocessing function with its own competency validation, test strips, and logs. A surface wipe on a semi-critical probe is a survey finding, not a shortcut. We clean the reprocessing room around it: counters, sinks, floors, and the physical separation between the dirty end and the clean end.

We do not invent a method for it. Where a manufacturer provides no cleaning and disinfection instructions, CDC's position is that the item is not suitable for multi-patient use, and improvising a chemistry risks either damaging the device or leaving it contaminated with no way to prove otherwise. We list every such device in the walkthrough report and hand it back to your administrator to resolve with the vendor. That is usually a short email and a returned document, and it closes a finding before a surveyor opens one.

The responsibility matrix showing which surfaces and devices are ours and which are clinical, the written cleaning and decontamination schedule under 29 CFR 1910.1030(d)(4)(i), product labels with EPA registration numbers and contact times, SDS sheets, the chemical storage and utility closet arrangement against 105 CMR 140.206, crew training records, and dated service logs. Surveyors test whether the method was defined and followed, not whether the floor looks clean. Dory's also carries $2 million in general liability and will issue a certificate naming your clinic.
