Patient tray lines, staff cafeterias, physician dining, and retail coffee shops inside hospitals and medical campuses across TX, OK, LA, NM, and AR rely on Facilitec Southwest for NFPA 96–compliant exhaust cleaning that respects infection control, patient safety, and Joint Commission documentation standards — around the clock.
A hospital kitchen never closes — patient meals are plated at 5 a.m., retail cafés run for families at midnight, physician lounges rotate through on-call teams around the clock, and every kitchen sits inside a building full of immunocompromised patients. A hood fire, suppression discharge, or odor event isn't just a food-service problem in a hospital — it's a patient-safety event, an infection-control event, and an accreditation risk. Facilitec Southwest keeps healthcare kitchens cleaned, credentialed, and quietly compliant on your schedule.
Regular exhaust cleaning dramatically reduces your risk by keeping flammable grease out of the exhaust system and ensuring your suppression system can perform properly during an emergency.
Symplr, Vendormate, or IntelliCentrics badge verification — plus Infection Control Risk Assessment coordination with your IP team and Facilities.
Full manual grease removal from hood, plenum, duct, and fan — with barriers, HEPA containment, and negative-pressure measures where the ICRA calls for them.
Food-safe, low-residual, low-odor degreasers and contained pressure washing — engineered so patients in rooms above or beside the kitchen aren't disturbed.
Dated NFPA 96 sticker per hood, before/after photo log, and a compliance packet formatted for Joint Commission EC/LS chapters and CMS survey support.
Your rooftop is just as vulnerable as your hood. Facilitec Southwest installs and maintains rooftop grease containment systems to stop leaks, protect roofing materials, and prevent costly repairs.
24/7 main patient kitchens and high-volume retail cafés: monthly. Staff cafeterias and MOB cafés: quarterly. Physician dining rooms, surgery center snack bars, and lower-volume outlets: quarterly to semi-annually. Joint Commission and CMS expect frequency aligned with actual grease load — we’ll build a per-outlet plan that stands up to any surveyor.
Yes. We maintain active profiles in the major healthcare vendor credentialing systems and can quickly complete any campus-specific requirements your Supply Chain or Vendor Management office requires before site access.
Yes. Our crews are trained to execute ICRA Class I through IV work practices — including HEPA containment, negative-pressure barriers, dust control, and PPE discipline. We coordinate with Infection Prevention before each visit so there are no surprises for the clinical team.
No. Our low-odor chemistry, contained airflow, and overnight scheduling are specifically designed so patients in rooms near and above the kitchen don’t notice. Oncology, transplant, NICU, and behavioral health units are never our problem — they’re our planning constraint.
Yes. Our compliance packets are formatted for EC (Environment of Care) and LS (Life Safety) chapter binders, align with Statement of Conditions documentation, and have held up in Joint Commission, DNV, HFAP, and CMS surveys across the region.
Yes. Our 24/7 emergency crews are dispatched for post-incident cleanup, surface decontamination, and re-certification — getting the patient kitchen back to operational status and survey-ready as quickly as possible, so meal service to patients is never threatened.
