Medical Office Sidewalk Clearing

What This Service Involves

Medical office patients frequently arrive with canes, walkers, wheelchairs, or unsteady balance, so an icy approach carries far greater consequences than at an ordinary business. We prioritize the accessible route, drop-off zone, and entrance so appointments continue safely from open to close. The Puget Sound freeze-thaw cycle rebuilds ice throughout the day, and clinics running back-to-back appointments cannot afford a hazardous walk at any hour. Our crews clear before opening and return as conditions change, backed by written logs that support the practice's risk management.

Benefits

Protects vulnerable patients with limited mobility from falls; Accessible routes and drop-off zones treated as top priority; All-day coverage matches continuous appointment traffic; Written service records support clinic risk management; Reduces liability where the duty of care is especially high

Our Process

1) Prioritize the accessible route, ramp, and patient drop-off zone; 2) Clear the main entrance and walk before the first appointment; 3) Return through the day as freeze-thaw rebuilds ice; 4) Document each visit for the practice's compliance file

What Affects the Cost

Footage of accessible routes and entrance walks; Number of return visits needed across clinic hours; Drop-off and handicap-access zones included; Priority timing before first appointments; Deicer chosen for heavy pedestrian and wheelchair use

Best Time of Year

Medical office risk runs from late November through February, with day-long freeze-thaw demanding repeat visits during clinic hours.
