Pass your CQC Audit with ServiceMaster Clean Contract Services LNP

How ServiceMaster Clean Contract Services LNP mobilised at short notice and helped this client pass their CQC audit.

As a medical service provider, CQC audits are always a key date in your diary. Preparing for them can be nerve-wracking and stressful, but with ServiceMaster Clean Contract Services, they don’t have to be.

Our teams nationwide are backed by over 65 years of expertise in providing premium commercial cleaning services to medical premises and trained to ensure your sites are in the best possible condition to pass your audits with flying colours.

In this case study, we see how the team at ServiceMaster Clean Contract Services LNP stepped up at short notice to help a GP Practice whose previous cleaning provider left them unprepared for their upcoming CQC audit.

The Situation at Hand

The team at ServiceMaster Clean Contract Services LNP were contacted by this GP Practice when their next CQC audit was a matter of weeks away. The practice had been using another cleaning company but was experiencing multiple issues with the service provided, and as such, was not confident that they would pass their audit.

In a time of need, the practice manager reached out to our team, whom he remembered from his previous role at a different practice, where we had provided cleaning services.

“We knew about you already, and wanted to give you a try. We thought, since you are providing cleaning services to many GP Practices, your standards must be very high,” he says.

How We Helped

Initially, the practice manager contacted a member of our sales team during a busy summer season, saying he was in urgent need of cleaning. With time of the essence, we sent out a quote that afternoon and organised a site visit for the next working day.

Our Operations Manager conducted the site visit as planned, a week before the CQC audit, and began the cleaning of two surgeries that night and continued to do so every night that week while organising a team to carry out a thorough deep cleaning before the inspection, which included the cleaning of all of the surgeries’ carpets and flooring.

The Results

Turning the situation around for the practice, the deep cleaning and attention to detail from our team meant that when the day of the audit arrived, the surgery passed with no issues!

Since then, the team have continued their work at the surgery and have gone the extra mile in the aftermath of the audit, replacing broken soap dispensers and installing fem bins where they were missing.

Now, a very satisfied practice manager has a word of advice for any commercial premises needing a new cleaner:

“Give a chance to ServiceMaster if you are unhappy with your current cleaning provider and see what they can do for you!”

ServiceMaster Clean Contract Services LNP Unveils Electric Van

Going green in Peterborough through a brand-new electric van.

At ServiceMaster Clean Contract Services, our businesses nationwide are doing their bit for the environment by adapting to operate more sustainably.

At ServiceMaster Clean CS LNP, this already includes working alongside Impact Hero and their ‘Grow My Tree’ initiative to plant a tree for new clients they partner with, offsetting their carbon emissions in the process.

Now they’re taking their sustainability practices to the streets of Peterborough through the implementation of a brand-new electric ServiceMaster Clean van!

Expanding the fleet

Our iconic yellow vans have always been a beacon of excellence, helping us stand out as we shine the spotlight on your operation through exceptional cleaning services. This new van is no exception, as it is set to light up the streets of Peterborough while helping us do our part for the environment.

The need for a new van arose as the team sought to expand its existing vehicle portfolio to accommodate a new technician, who would work from it as they increased their capacity in the Peterborough area. Knowing they wanted to continue their commitment to sustainable practices, the team, led by General Manager Lee Redfern, decided to introduce an electric van.

Lee says this decision was influenced by the business’s own ethical standpoint of creating a more sustainable operation:

“These days, climate change is constantly in the spotlight, and I believe it’s massively important to address. We’ve changed the way we operate—how we recycle chemicals, the equipment and products we use, and how we manage waste. We always recycle the plastic bottles, and at our office, we refill our tanks with recycled water, which we then purify using our own system for window cleaning.”

Evolving Sustainability

Therefore, Lee sees an electric van as another step in their ongoing commitment to sustainability, as the business looks to expand with further electric vehicles in the future and work towards a carbon-neutral accreditation.

“A green vehicle, I think it’s massive and is going to get bigger and bigger.”

Need a greener cleaner?

If you are in Leicester, Northampton, Peterborough, and the surrounding areas, keep your eyes peeled for a flash of yellow and call 0116 2403757 to learn the value of cleaners who care.

ServiceMaster Clean Contract Services LNP: Bettering the environment with Grow My Tree Initiatives

How ServiceMaster Clean Contract Services LNP are working with Impact Hero to support the environment with Grow My Tree initiatives.

In today’s world, climate change is an ever-growing factor in our lives and social and moral consciousness.

This naturally affects the way we, as a society, are doing business.

Particularly as more businesses recognise the importance of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR), as over 52% of business owners believe that a successful CSR strategy can add value to a business.

However, when it comes to sustainability and green initiatives – according to Forbes – although 90% of companies think sustainability is essential, only 60% have implemented a sustainability strategy.

The team at ServiceMaster Clean Contract Services LNP are amongst the minority of businesses in the UK, including other ServiceMaster Clean businesses, who are affecting positive change with tree planting initiatives.

Grow My Tree Initiatives

This year, the award-winning team at LNP teamed up with Impact Hero, a platform that empowers companies like ServiceMaster Clean to embody a Net Positive approach to business.

Together, they are working to plant a tree in honour of every new client that achieves a specific spend as part of the team’s ongoing commitment to fight climate change and as an effective and sustainable way forward.

This naturally combats climate change by absorbing carbon dioxide, outputting oxygen, and ensuring healthy soil.

One new tree neutralises approximately 22kg of carbon dioxide, and since August, the team have planted 16 trees, the offsetting outcome of which is approximate to the carbon dioxide output of:

  • Consuming 9,600g of beef
  • Consuming 2544kg of vegetables
  • 16 train journeys between Cologne – Munich
  • 3,68% of one person’s annual CO2 emissions

Denise Ces Agraso, Head of Payroll, Pensions, and HR at ServiceMaster Clean Contract Services LNP, says:

“We are delighted to report that since teaming up with Impact Hero, we have planted 16 trees!”

“We believe that taking action against climate change is crucial, and we are proud to offer this unique opportunity to new clients.”

“Together, we can make a positive impact on our environment.”

The value of a cleaner who cares

The LNP team care about their customers and environment and goes above and beyond the call of duty.

We know that the value of a good service goes beyond just cost.

Therefore, we pride ourselves on building long-lasting relationships with our clients.

This helps us to know, meet, and exceed your expectations and deliver the service you deserve every time.
