Carry on Doctor

Charlotte Bowe • 25 November 2019

If only real life was a ‘Carry On’ movie, then GP Surgeries wouldn’t have to stress so much about CQC?

‘CQC you say? Now what is that, matron?’

GP surgeries and health centres should ensure they engage the services of a professional commercial cleaning company, as they receive yearly inspections from the Care Quality Commission (CQC). This organisation ensures that healthcare providers are assessed to confirm that the care provided meets the government's standards of quality and safety for both patients and staff.

It's Clean conform to CQC standards for the GP surgeries we clean. For every site we clean, we create job cards, which adhere to religiously.

‘Ooh job cards, tell me more matron!’

Our job cards factor in each area of the site i.e. consulting rooms, waiting rooms, toilets, staircases, corridors, staff rooms and kitchens. Then, under each area of the site we document the specific cleaning jobs that need to be completed for the surgery to be safe for patients and staff to use.

The importance of cleaning standards is critical in an environment that is repeatedly exposed to germs and bacteria. Cleaning standards are put in place to ensure that patients entering the building, are protected from any other harmful germs and bacteria that may be festering in the surgery. So, when Mrs Windsor arrives for her monthly check-up, she won't be leaving with anything else.

Ensuring that the environment is safe for patients and staff to occupy is a number one priority for cleaning companies such as It's Clean.

So, what are the benefits of a clean and safe surgery?

Improve patient recovery rates.
Healthy medical staff.
Boosts the morale of the medical staff which ensures patient's satisfaction and increases standards of medical treatment.
Helps to create a pleasant environment for patients visiting the surgery.
Prevents patients from picking up infections at the surgery, as it reduces the number of bacteria and germs in the building.

Cleanliness and disinfection in the healthcare sector is extremely important as it is an environment that is regularly exposed to germs and bacteria. To reduce this high level of risk, a regular cleaning regime implemented by a professional commercial cleaning company is vital.

‘Ooh matron, you are so clever’
