We deliver specialised cleaning services to more than 9,500 beds across 105 sites, supporting sterile environments in wards, theatres, emergency departments, and public areas.
A clean hospital isn’t just about hygiene, it’s about care, dignity and safety. Our cleaning teams play a vital role in NSW Health public hospitals, creating environments where patients can heal, health staff can work confidently, and families feel safe. Often, they are the friendly faces patients see most, offering reassurance and helping each person feel looked after during their stay.
Our cleaning staff follow rigorous clinical protocols designed to minimise healthcare-associated infections, protect vulnerable patients, and ensure every space meets safety standards.
Our staff work around the clock to make sure hospitals stay clean, safe and ready for care.
Clean and disinfect patient rooms, clinical areas, operating theatres, and public spaces
Safely handle and dispose of clinical and general waste
Ensure clean linen is available and used linen is removed safely to support patient care and infection control

Support clinical teams by maintaining a clean healthcare environment
Every clean surface, every disinfected room, and every well-maintained space contributes to safer hospitals and better patient care.
As part of NSW Health, we understand the complexities of sterile environments and are governed by state policy directives and clinical requirements.
We work in partnership with:
We also use ISOPro Compliance Management System at more than 117 sites to track performance, monitor compliance and support continuous improvement.
Our cleaners are trained in infection control practices, safe chemical handling, proper PPE use and hospital cleaning standards. We place a strong focus on ongoing training, ensuring our teams have the skills and confidence to meet clinical requirements every time.
Cleaning staff work closely with nurses, infection control units and hospital management to ensure nothing is missed and every patient environment remains safe.
We’re investing in safer, greener ways to keep hospitals clean:
Replaces harsh chemicals in hospital kitchens, cleaning hard surfaces and sanitising fruit and vegetables. With a hospital-grade cleaning solution made from water, salt and electricity, it’s economical, safe, and TGA-listed for COVID-19.
Reduces water use while improving hygiene results.
Ensure efficiency, consistency and better clinical outcomes.
Cleaner hospitals mean safer patients, and a smaller environmental footprint.
Our cleaners are essential to patient care. They learn how to support vulnerable people, work safely in clinical environments, and develop skills that stay with them for life.
Cleaning roles are also a great fit for people starting their careers, including students. With part-time opportunities available, it’s possible to study while making a meaningful difference to patients every day.
