ENVIRONMENTAL CLEANING A KEY
FACTOR IN THE FIGHT AGAINST HAI’S
An IPAC cleaning program must target surfaces based on their risk profile and level of soil or dirt. Duties should be performed in the most effective order to reduce the spread of infectious agents throughout the facility, and should be divided according to risk management, usually with an emphasis on surface disinfection.
The World Health Organization recognizes HAI’s as infections occuring in a patient during the process of care in a health facility that were not present or incubating at the time of admission. Many factors lead to increased risk of developing an HAI such as advanced age, underlying illness, the emergence of diseases such as MRSA, C. difficile, Covid-19, complex treatment modalities, and the prevalence of antibiotic-resistant organisms.
Environmental Cleaning Best Practices
Industry standards have been developed within the healthcare industry regarding cleaning, disinfection, and sanitation of surfaces, furniture, equipment, and medical devices that are helping in the fight against healthcare associated infections. Our team is trained to perform in the safest manner recommended to help minimize the spread of HAI’s.

CRITICAL ACCLAIM
In a recent survey, we asked our customers what was most important to them in their work environment. An answer that came up again-and-again ~ cleanliness! Our customers share the opinion that health facilities deserve a more detailed cleaning and disinfection process than most other workplaces. WIth the help of our customers, we have developed a comprehensive environmental cleaning system that can be shared not only in healthcare, but throughout various industries.
We heard of Gremac, we reached out, and engaged them and It’s been a brilliant relationship ever since. I would recommend Gremac for a range of other Community Health Teams, Family Health Teams, and other healthcare facilities.
We’ve been happy with Gremac for over 6 years. We survey our patients, we find consistently that they appreciate how clean the clinic is…that’s great for tour reputation. We consider Gremac to be an integral part of our team.
The staff at Gremac is always pleasant to work with, easy to communicate with and they are always looking for ways to improve and provide better service.
Gremac cleaners are excellent In every way. Prompt, courteous, thorough, completely professional and a joy to have around. We have been working with them for over 8 years and they do a beautiful job keeping our clinic clean. I would absolutely recommend Gremac to other friends and organizations.
We can depend for providing thorough cleaning services, as well as staff coverage when our full-time caretakers nee vacation, sick, or emergency days. The Gremac team is flexible and very accommodating for any additional cleaning requests or short notice which we really appreciate.
Since the start of providing services for LAMP CHC, I had a great experience with Gremac. All the staff I’ve dealt with are professional, responsive, and very efficient. They are always willing to help at anytime, one call is enough to solve or help with any issue or request. Thanks Gremac for being an excellent partner with the LAMP team.
