How you can implement medical cleaning practices into other Residential and commercial cleaning situations

13 Jul 2025 5:19 PM | Katy Miranda


Residential and commercial have differences, it's a must to add medical cleaning practices into any business for many reasons. Cleaning product, techniques, policy are already part of everyday cleaning practices for example at http://www.ibec.ie/ there is a platform for businesses, tips on how to start a cleaning business already an ecosystem is in place for people to be introduce with 39 trade associates, 300 staff members, about 1,632 thousand third party cases. Ibec is one example of how medical cleaning can be implemented in a residential or commercial cleaning situation by simply using medical products, Policys, and work techniques. 

Another way on how to add medical cleaning practices is to understand the importance in implement medical cleaning. for example, at hospital you are trained step by step when approaching a patient, you must knock, announce yourself with why your there and the same for residential client you always have to knock, announce you are present in someone's home. Next, is my favorite the color code tools where it prevents cross contamination red -toilets and urinals yellow-sinks and counters blue- general surfaces green- kitchen/food areas just assign specific colors to bucket, help too by adding this system can really improve in the health of anyone home, office, or restaurant business. 

Cleaning agents are common in medical cleaning practices because every space needs a safe agent to effectively lift soil and dirt from the material. Now implementing this to residential cleaning service you would use the same neutral detergent Max pro is great use in homes, schools, office spaces they are no-rinse disinfectant, fungicidal, mold-inhibiting, low-odor, eco-certified. If you need EPA -registered disinfectant for high-risk areas like doorknob, switches, shared electronics morning mist fast neutral disinfectant cleaner would be simple clean, it maintains material integrity, reduce skin and respiratory irritation and makes them ideal for everyday cleaning in residential settings. 

The last are PPE gear where you will find every medical hospital has implemented in the training. PPE is essential in a cleaning routine using gloves when handling chemicals or cleaning bodily fluids where are labeled high risk therefore you need masks, gloves, gowns, and goggles to protect from hazards that could cause injury or illness. Overall, we implement medical cleaning practice systems because it saves life, its proven and cleaning business that tend to residential or commercial are usually traffic areas that accidents happen so adding strategies, policy only improves the health of families.
