Raising Standards in Healthcare — Through Reliable Facility Support

From sterile spaces to responsive maintenance, Apleona Ireland supports healthcare teams by creating safe, compliant, and calm environments for patients and staff alike.

1. Why Facility Support Matters in Healthcare

Healthcare environments don’t function like regular workplaces. Every detail—air quality, cleanliness, water safety, swift equipment repairs—impacts both patient outcomes and staff efficiency. By partnering with a specialised facility management provider like us, institutions benefit from:

Clean, controlled environments: Our Centre of Excellence team trains staff in GMP and aseptic cleaning to prevent cross-contamination in labs or clinical areas.

Responsive maintenance: A 24/7 helpdesk ensures critical systems—from HVAC to medical waste lines—stay functional, avoiding disruptions and calming staff concerns.

Compliance assurance: Routine testing (e.g. water safety, legionella) and proactive maintenance minimises risks—ensuring spaces meet all regulatory standards.

2. What We Do Behind the Scenes

Apleona Ireland delivers a full spectrum of facility services designed for healthcare settings:

High spec cleaning: Tailored to controlled environments like cleanrooms and operating theatres, delivered by GMP trained teams.

Waste management: From clinical to hazardous waste, processes are meticulously managed—characterisation, segregation, collection and safe disposal.

Clean room performance management: HVAC systems are verified and optimised to maintain precise temperature, humidity and particle control.

Preventative maintenance: Asset performance solutions, backed by sensor-based monitoring and predictive maintenance, keep systems reliable and costs in check.

Water safety protocols: Expert monitoring of water systems—including legionella testing—ensures compliance and protects patient health.

3. Benefits for Patients, Staff, and Operations

4. How We Stand Out

Apleona Ireland is uniquely positioned to meet the demands of healthcare facilities:

Centre of Excellence: A dedicated team of experts focused on healthcare and life sciences, offering best-in-class, compliant FM solutions.

Integrated, self-delivered model: Nationwide coverage by professionals ensures accountability and consistency.

Innovation-first approach: Advanced tech that are chemical-free clean agents, predictive maintenance via Eastway, and AI-powered systems from Recogizer help reduce downtime, cost, and environmental impact.

Sustainability ethos: Environmental responsibility features across our services—from waste to energy efficiency.

5. Peace of Mind is Not Optional

For healthcare leaders, partnership with Apleona means one less thing to worry about. Smooth operations, compliance, and a calm environment for staff and patients alike—that’s what makes our facility support indispensable.
