Clinic cleaning and sanitising, Melbourne's northern suburbs
Every high touch surface gets a hospital grade disinfectant rated for 30 days. Once a month we test it in front of your practice manager, and you keep the result.
What the monthly test is for
A wiped surface looks the same whether the product worked or not. High touch surfaces carry a coating rated for 30 days. Every month we test those surfaces in front of your practice manager and write the result down.
The program
Every clinic starts with a full deep clean at no extra charge. After that it runs on a set schedule, built around the rooms that matter most. Same products, same checklists, same signed log at every site.
First visit, included
Before the schedule starts we take the clinic back to zero. Inside the ceiling and door vents, on top of railings and frames, under every desk and bed, into the corners. Curtains, curtain rails, door handles and door jambs. Every clinical bed sanitised. It takes as long as it takes and it is part of the service, not an extra line on the quote.
Maintenance clean
The whole clinic, every visit. Consulting rooms, reception, bathrooms, kitchen, toilets, entrance glass, all door handles, bins emptied and re-lined from liners we supply. HEPA filtered bagless vacuums throughout. What each visit covers.
Treatment and doctors rooms
A treatment room sanitising pass every week. Every fortnight the treatment rooms and doctors rooms get the full high touch sanitising clean: beds, trolleys, step stools, scales, height measures, dispensers, every piece of fixed equipment in the room.
Two or more clinics
Everything above at every site, plus a whole of practice fog inside the first fortnight, insect treatment every three months with residual protection, and monthly surface testing. One specification, one calendar, one invoice. What the group program includes.
The schedule is written to sit inside your infection prevention and control policy. Price is set by clinic size, after a walkthrough. We bring our own equipment and products to every visit, including two hospital grade disinfectants listed in the ARTG (AUST L 69000 and ARTG 421991), and the log is signed on the way out. Each sector works to its own standard: see dental practices and radiology and imaging.
What each visit covers
The room-by-room schedule lists every surface, product and frequency.
The whole clinic
Treatment room sanitising
Treatment and doctors rooms, deep sanitise
Pathology rooms sit on the same schedule as the treatment rooms. Any additional rooms the practice rents out are included where that is agreed at the walkthrough. Frequently touched surfaces still need a daily wipe under the RACGP guidelines. Your team's daily pass sits alongside ours, and the schedule shows both.
What we use
The statements below are quoted from each product's entry in the Australian Register of Therapeutic Goods, or from its manufacturer, as marked.
Every visit, on desks and general surfaces. Whiteley's ARTG entry describes it as a hard surface disinfectant effective against a broad range of bacteria including MRSA, VRE, CPE/CRE and Acinetobacter, and proven effective against Candida albicans, hepatitis B, herpes simplex, influenza and coronaviruses including SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19).
pH neutral, non corrosive to metals. Not used on medical devices.
On every high touch surface, and fogged whole of practice in the first fortnight. Its ARTG entry states it is effective against bacteria, fungi and COVID-19 (SARS-CoV-2), with 30 days effective residual activity against COVID-19 (SARS-CoV-2) after a single application. Hard surfaces only, not for medical devices.
This is the product the monthly strip test checks for.
Every month, at every clinic. A strip test on the treated high touch surfaces to confirm the residual coating is still present. Anything that fails is re-treated on the same visit and the result is written into the log with the date and the surfaces tested.
Bathrooms and toilets, every visit. A foaming heavy duty bathroom product. Whiteley states it removes body fats, hard water deposits, rust, soap scum, algae and mildew, and kills odour causing bacteria in damp areas such as drains. Used on tiles, glass, stainless steel and benchtops.
After every vacuum. Carpet is sanitised with Biosan II at working dilution, a hospital grade disinfectant listed in the ARTG. Waiting room and consulting chairs and other soft furnishings are treated with Glen 20, which is listed for soft as well as hard surfaces.
Carpet is pre-tested at each site before the first treatment. Steam extraction is a separate service, quoted on request.
Ours, at every visit. Sealed H13 HEPA filtration vacuums, so what comes off the floor stays in the machine. Colour coded microfibre on the national red, blue, green and yellow scheme, so a bathroom cloth never reaches a consulting room bench. Disinfectant wipes for high touch points and seating, and separate screen wipes for clinical IT.
We also supply the bin liners the practice uses between our visits.
On request. A metered dispenser in reception and the amenities, cartridge changed on our schedule, so the clinic holds a clean neutral note between visits rather than a chemical one. We call this odour control because that is what it is. It does not disinfect air and we do not present it as infection control.
A product list and current safety data sheets go into your hazardous chemicals register on day one and are reissued whenever a product changes.
The evidence
The RACGP Standards name three things for contract cleaning. A written agreement setting out the schedule, the products and the areas covered. A cleaning log. And being able to show the practice is cleaned regularly. You get all three, on paper and on site, plus a monthly test result.
Which surfaces, how often, with which product, by whom. Written to sit inside your infection prevention and control policy, and to show your team's daily tasks next to ours.
A printed book that stays at your practice. Signed at every visit with the date, the tasks completed and the name of the person who did them.
The initial deep clean, the maintenance clean, and the treatment and doctors room sanitise. Worked through on the clipboard and filed, so the log is backed by the detail behind it.
A dated strip test record for the treated high touch surfaces at each site, and a note of anything re-treated as a result.
For your hazardous chemicals register. ARTG numbers on the list.
Date, product, ARTG number and areas treated for every fog and every insect treatment. Every person who attends your clinic has signed a confidentiality agreement before their first visit.
Our practice is visibly clean.
Indicator GP5.1F, RACGP Standards for general practices, 5th edition. Criterion GP4.1 requires the practice's infection control policy to cover environmental cleaning of clinical and non-clinical areas. The 6th edition, published August 2026, carries the same requirements in CG9 and CG10. Clinics accredited under the NSQPCH Standards are covered by Action 3.09.
Group program, two or more clinics
For the operations manager looking after more than one clinic at a time.
Not held over to an annual date. Every site is fogged after hours inside the first two weeks, so the group starts from a treated baseline. Application records are left on site.
A Forcefield strip test on the treated high touch surfaces at every clinic, every month, to confirm the residual coating is still there. Where it has worn, the surface is re-treated on the same visit. The result goes in the log with the date and the surfaces tested.
Applied after hours once the practice is empty and cleared before opening, to the label. The products used state residual protection of up to six months, so treating every three months leaves no gap between treatments. Included at no charge and noted in the log.
A ULV fog of Forcefield Mould Killer + Protector at every clinic, after hours and ventilated before opening, as the label directs. The manufacturer states up to 12 months protection against mould. A mould treatment, not a disinfectant, and separate from the hospital grade fog.
Each site keeps its own book. Signed at every visit, so every clinic is ready whichever year its accreditation falls in.
The same room-by-room schedule, the same checklists, the same product list and safety data sheets at every site. One document for the group's infection control policy to reference.
Weekly, fortnightly, monthly and quarterly tasks scheduled across the group and tracked for you, so nothing waits for a surveyor to ask.
One 500ml bottle of the same 30 day residual disinfectant stays at each clinic for your own use. Use it on a surface that has just been delivered or installed, so it is protected from the first day. Use it on a room after a patient with a high infection risk, if you want it treated before our next visit. Replaced every three months, or sooner if you ask.
HEPA vacuums, disinfectants, cloths and wipes come with us to every site and leave with us. Nothing for the practices to buy, store or lend.
One invoice for the group, itemised by clinic. Any site can raise a request or report an issue through the request form and gets a reference number back.
Questions practices ask
An initial deep clean of the whole clinic. Vents, railings, corners, under desks and beds, curtains and rails, door jambs, and every clinical bed sanitised. It is included in the program, not charged as a separate job.
Three things. A residual disinfectant that keeps working for 30 days rather than until it dries. A strip test every month that shows the coating is still on the surface. And a written record of both that your practice can hand to a surveyor.
Outside consulting hours. Days per clinic are set in the service schedule and agreed before the first visit, along with keys and the alarm.
We bring our own. HEPA vacuums, disinfectants, cloths and wipes come with us and leave with us. We supply the bin liners, enough for ten bin changes a day so you never run out between visits. Your practice buys its own paper towel and toilet rolls; we put them out at every visit, provided they are kept in the cleaners cupboard.
A room-by-room schedule, a signed log kept at the clinic, three printed checklists, a product list with safety data sheets, monthly surface test records, and application records for every fog and insect treatment.
Yes. Every person who attends a clinic signs a confidentiality agreement before their first visit, and works to a written privacy policy. Clinical records, screens and medicine storage are never accessed.
Through the request form on this site. Every request gets a reference number and is tracked to close, so nothing lives in a text message. Anything urgent, call the number above.
No. Clinical, cytotoxic and sharps waste stay with your licensed clinical waste contractor. We handle general waste only.
Every visit includes HEPA vacuuming and a carpet sanitiser. Steam extraction of carpets and upholstery, and other one-off work, is extra and quoted on request.
