The Maids Has Flu Season Covered



Many experts and media outlets are predicting that we are entering one of the
worst cold and flu seasons on record. For all of us here at The Maids Home Services

the health and welfare of our employees, and customers is always a top
priority. Our 22-Step Healthy Touch® Deep Cleaning System was created to
provide you and your family with the healthiest living environment possible.
Reducing germs and bacteria in your home takes on particular importance this
year.
We would like to share with you some of the ways in which we are working each
day to attain this healthy environment for you and our teams:
-> All microfiber cleaning cloths, brushes, toilet brushes and scrub tools are
switched out between homes, and cleaned and disinfected at our facilities
before reuse.
-> Our backpack vacuums with HEPA filtration capture 99% of dust,
allergens, dust mites, and bacteria that are vacuumed. Our vacuums and
cleaning buckets are disinfected after each use.
->Our teams are provided with and required to use
antibacterial hand
sanitizer
between homes. Also, all interior surfaces of the team cars are
disinfected each evening.
->In your home our team disinfects light switches, doorknobs, telephones,
->This fall we have been holding refresher training meetings on disinfecting
techniques, spread of virus and bacteria, and cold / flu prevention for all
our teams and managers. Managers are on the lookout for any employees
displaying flu like symptoms, and those employees will be sent home.
Cleaning for health is not something new for The Maids, we have been practicing
these techniques your home since 1995. We are, however, more acutely aware of its importance, and our role in helping you keep healthy.
