A medical office cleaning log records which rooms were cleaned, what they were cleaned with, how long the product stayed wet and who signed it off — the written half of an infection prevention and control programme.

Takes 30 seconds. Print one per exam room or per area, initial after each clean, and keep the completed sheets in your IPAC binder.

Every clinic says it cleans between patients. The log is the part that can be handed to somebody else.
The table, the pillow, the BP cuff, the otoscope handle and the door handle are touched by every patient who comes through. Recording the turnover clean per room, rather than as one line for the whole clinic, is what makes a specific room's history reconstructable when it matters.
A disinfectant that was wiped on and dried in twenty seconds did not disinfect anything. Every DIN-registered product states a wet contact time on its label. Writing the observed time down is what separates a real protocol from a spray-and-wipe.
Your local public health unit has authority under the Health Protection and Promotion Act to investigate IPAC complaints against an office. That review is retrospective, against whatever records already exist. It is not the moment to start keeping them.
Public Health Ontario publishes an IPAC Checklist for Clinical Office Practice — Core Elements, updated 20 March 2024. Working through it is far quicker when the environmental cleaning section is already evidenced by signed sheets.

For each clean: the date and time, the room or area, the task (between patients, room turnover, waiting area, washrooms, end of day), who did it, the product used and its Health Canada DIN, the contact time observed, and initials. Contact time and the DIN are the two people most often leave off, and they are the two that determine whether the surface was actually disinfected rather than just wiped.
Exam tables and high-touch surfaces are typically disinfected between every patient; exam rooms are turned over after each appointment; waiting areas, reception counters, door handles and washrooms are cleaned at least daily and more often in respiratory season; floors are done daily; and a deeper clean covering vents, blinds, chair bases and behind equipment runs on a scheduled cycle. Treatment rooms where procedures are performed need more. Your own IPAC policy sets the actual frequencies — the log records that they were followed.
Not an ordinary family practice. The College of Physicians and Surgeons of Ontario runs an inspection programme for out-of-hospital premises — the clinics where procedures are performed under sedation or anaesthesia, such as endoscopy, pain, fertility and plastic surgery. An ordinary office is not on that schedule. IPAC still binds you: it is examined through complaints and investigations, through your local public health unit under the Health Protection and Promotion Act, and through your own self-audit. All of those look at records after the fact, which is the reason to keep them now.
A product with a Health Canada Drug Identification Number (DIN), appropriate to the surface, used at the dilution and wet contact time stated on its label. Surfaces must be physically cleaned before they are disinfected, because organic soil inactivates most disinfectants. Products marketed as "hospital-grade" without a DIN are not the same thing — the DIN is what shows Health Canada has reviewed the claim. Check the label rather than the marketing.
Yes, and it is usually better, because the record then gets written by whoever did the work instead of reconstructed afterwards. A contractor working in a clinical setting should clean to a written protocol, use DIN-registered products at the correct contact time, keep clinical and non-clinical equipment separate, and leave a signed log after every visit. Zusashi's medical office cleaning service does that across the GTA.
