Frequently Asked Questions

How do you ensure the safety and security of residents during the cleaning process?

Our cleaning staff is trained to operate discreetly and respectfully around residents, ensuring minimal disruption. We also perform thorough background checks (NDIS & Police Checks) on all our employees to maintain a safe and secure environment.

What happens if we have a Gastro outbreak?

Are your chemicals safe for residents with respiratory issues?

Yes. We use GECA-certified low-VOC cleaning agents for general cleaning to prevent respiratory irritation. For infection control, we use hospital-grade disinfectants that are effective against pathogens but safe for use in occupied care environments.

How do you address allergens and sensitivity concerns?

Our well-trained cleaning staff use specialised techniques and products to minimise allergens and maintain a clean and allergen-sensitive environment, addressing the sensitivity of both residents and staff.
