Reino Linen Service, a second generation, family-owned and operated company serving the textile needs of hospitals and healthcare facilities throughout Ohio and Michigan, recently qualified for renewal of the Hygienically Clean Healthcare certification for their locations in Brownstown, Missouri, and Gibsonburg, Ohio. The renewals of this certification reflect their continued commitment to best management practices (BMPs) in laundering as verified by on-site inspection and their capability to produce hygienically clean textiles as quantified by ongoing microbial testing.

The Hygienically Clean Healthcare certification confirms the organization’s continuing dedication to infection prevention, compliance with recognized industry standards and processing healthcare textiles using BMPs as described in its quality assurance documentation, a focal point for Hygienically Clean inspectors’ evaluation.

Objective experts in epidemiology, infection control, nursing and other healthcare professions work with Hygienically Clean launderers to ensure the certification continues to enforce the highest standards for producing clean healthcare textiles.

“Congratulations to Reino Linen Service on their recertifications,” said Joseph Ricci, TRSA president and CEO. “This achievement proves their commitment to infection prevention and that their laundry takes every step possible to prevent human illness.” The company has also earned TRSA’s Clean Green certification, which recognizes their efforts in environmental stewardship.
