The Challenge
Oakridge Private Clinic reached out to GC&C Group Limited after failing an internal hygiene audit that revealed lapses in surface disinfection, dust accumulation in treatment rooms, and improper waste disposal protocols. With a follow-up CQC inspection scheduled in less than a week, the clinic urgently needed a cleaning partner that understood both clinical hygiene standards and regulatory compliance.
What We Did
Within 24 hours of contact, our team conducted a full on-site hygiene assessment. Based on our findings, we developed a custom cleaning plan tailored to healthcare compliance requirements.
Our approach included:
A full deep clean of all treatment rooms, consultation spaces, and communal areas
Use of hospital-grade disinfectants and colour-coded equipment to prevent cross-contamination
Replacement of outdated waste bins with clinical-grade disposal units
Daily maintenance cleaning in the lead-up to the inspection
Our Strategy & Strengths
Clinical-Level Expertise
Our cleaning team is trained in infection control, COSHH compliance, and CQC inspection standards, ensuring nothing is overlooked.
Flexible Scheduling
We worked evenings and early mornings to avoid disrupting patient care—demonstrating our ability to work around healthcare operations seamlessly.
Before & After Visuals
We documented all work with photographic evidence and provided the client with a full hygiene compliance report to present to their inspectors.
Ongoing Quality Assurance
Post-clean, we carried out random spot checks and trained the in-house team on how to maintain hygiene levels between contracted cleans.

- Project Outcomes
- Passed follow-up CQC hygiene inspection
- 100% of cleaning criteria met and signed off
- Clinic extended contract to weekly maintenance cleaning
- Staff and patients reported improved confidence in facility standards
