Healthcare facility managers: your pest program is a patient safety program.
Hospitals, assisted living, nursing homes, surgery centers, dialysis clinics, pests in a healthcare setting aren't a nuisance.
A real healthcare pest program looks like:
π₯ Documented IPM plan that meets CMS infection control standards
π₯ Service zones mapped to patient care, food prep, pharmacy, waste
π₯ Pesticide-free or low-toxicity approaches in patient-occupied zones
π₯ 24-hour emergency response for incidents (bed bug introductions, rodent sightings)
π₯ Audit-ready documentation that survives any regulatory inspection
π₯ Coordination with infection prevention + environmental services
Most facilities we audit are using a residential-style pest program in a clinical setting, and they don't know what they're missing until an inspector finds it.
