Disinfectants and dwell time
Products on the EPA's registered lists, left wet for the time on the label. Wiping on and straight off doesn't disinfect.

Medical office cleaning:
what it requires.
Medical and dental office cleaning needs EPA-registered disinfectants used for their full contact time, color-coded cloths so restroom tools never touch exam rooms, cleaners trained on bloodborne pathogens, and a written protocol for each room type. Regulated medical waste and sharps are handled by a licensed hauler, not the cleaning crew.
What to expect from the cleaning company
Color-coded cloths
One color for restrooms, another for exam rooms, another for common areas, so nothing crosses over.
Trained crew
OSHA bloodborne pathogen training, and clear rules on what not to touch: sharps containers, red bags, equipment.
Room-by-room protocol
Exam rooms, operatories, waiting rooms and restrooms each have their own steps, written into the scope.
Touchpoints every visit
Door handles, check-in counters, chair arms, light switches and pens.
Records
A visit record you can show if anyone asks how the space is cleaned.
