Healthcare Curtain Cleaning Program for Hospitals & Other Facilities

More on this Innovative Rental and Cleaning Program for Healthcare Cubicle Curtains

Laundering that Exceeds Infection Prevention Standards

The improvement of your patients’ health is at the forefront of your work. That’s why we follow a comprehensive infection prevention process. Our laundering process meets or exceeds the OSHA, CDC and HLAC standards and complies with The Joint Commission linen laundry requirements.

No Upfront Costs

Depending on the size of your facility, purchasing new surgical curtains could require capital budget approval for the project, upwards of six figures. With the ImageFIRST fully managed cubicle curtain cleaning program for healthcare facilities, you don’t purchase the curtains, so no capital expenditure budget is needed and there are no upfront costs.

A Fully Managed Service

To alleviate your staff’s workload, your Customer Advocate will deliver clean, properly sanitized medical curtains on time, help manage your curtain inventory, change the curtains on a regular schedule, and provide documentation of the change. We then clean, sanitize, and inspect the replaced curtains at our facility. Torn or permanently stained curtains are replaced at no cost to you.

Improved Safety for Patients & Staff

Changing a hospital privacy curtain may seem easy, but typical methods may be dangerous. Not only could the removed curtain be infected with pathogenic bacteria, but the removal usually involves a ladder. With the ImageFIRST time-saving system:
  • Individual panels can be removed and replaced in 90 seconds or less.
  • You will have a stock of extra panels on hand that can be changed without the use of a ladder. 

Documentation for Proof of Infection Prevention Compliance

With this program, panels are embedded with RFID technology or barcodes, enabling in-field scanning by your Customer Advocate for both tracking as well as providing infection prevention documentation. Data is stored digitally and available at any time.
