Protecting Patient Safety Through Specialized Healthcare Cleaning
In healthcare, cleanliness isn’t simply an expectation — it’s a clinical requirement. Every surface, room, and shared space plays a role in preventing infections and protecting patients. When cleaning standards slip, the risks escalate quickly: increased infection transmission, negative patient experiences, and potential compliance violations with CDC, AORN, and OSHA regulations.
At KBS, we understand the weight of that responsibility. Our healthcare facility services are built to support safe care environments, reduce infection risks, and help facilities maintain compliance every day. With decades of experience supporting medical offices, clinics, and surgical centers across the country, we bring the trained teams, hospital-grade products, and proven processes needed to keep patient care spaces clean, consistent, and ready for use.
As a trusted, national provider, KBS takes an operationally aligned, clinical-minded approach — cleaning with precision, following strict protocols, and supporting the workflows of physicians, nurses, and clinical staff.
Our Healthcare Cleaning Services
Every healthcare facility has unique cleaning needs influenced by patient volume, risk level, and clinical specialty. KBS develops tailored medical cleaning services based on your layout and compliance standards — all powered by a trained workforce and EPA-registered disinfectants.
We deliver services across three core categories: janitorial services for healthcare facilities, exterior maintenance for healthcare campuses, and specialty support services.
Janitorial Services
Our janitorial cleaning teams follow structured procedures designed specifically for medical environments, focusing on cleaning and disinfection. These services help maintain clean, safe patient care areas while reducing risks associated with HAIs (healthcare-associated infections). Our teams support a wide range of spaces, including exam rooms, treatment areas, outpatient rooms, medical offices and more.
Core clinical and non-clinical cleaning services include:
- Daily cleaning and disinfecting of waiting rooms, lobbies, and reception areas
- Thorough cleaning of exam rooms, treatment rooms, imaging suites (MRI, X‑ray, ultrasound), and procedure areas
- Restroom, staff lounge, office, and breakroom cleaning
- Hard-surface floor care (scrubbing, stripping, refinishing)
- Carpet care using HEPA-filter vacuums and low-moisture methods
- Interior glass and window cleaning
- Trash and medical waste room cleaning
Our teams are trained in proper PPE usage and hand hygiene practices and use hospital-grade disinfectants applied according to clinical best practices to support infection prevention.
Exterior Maintenance
A clean, safe, and professional exterior is essential for patient confidence and accessibility. Exterior healthcare services include:
- Cleaning of building entrances and walkways
- Parking lot sweeping and debris control
- Snow and ice management (regional)
- Beautiful landscaping that maintains clear sightlines and accessible pathways
- Exterior window cleaning
- Pressure washing for sidewalks, patient drop-off zones, and covered entryways
These services help reduce slip hazards, improve the patient and employee experience, and support a safer environment beyond clinical spaces.
Specialty Support Services
Healthcare organizations often require specialized cleaning services beyond standard janitorial programs. KBS provides clinical-grade support built around infection control, compliance, and high-touch patient environments.
Specialized healthcare solutions include:
- Cleaning for outpatient and ambulatory surgical centers
- EVS workflow integration
- Enhanced cleaning protocols for high-risk areas
- Touchpoint disinfection programs
- Cleanroom and controlled-environment cleaning (where applicable)
- Spill response for non-hazardous incidents
- Regulated medical waste handling and staging per facility protocol
- Trash / recycle collection
Together, these services form a comprehensive healthcare facility cleaning program designed to reduce infection risk, support clinical operations, and help your facility always stay inspection ready.
