Nightly Nuclear Medicine Lab Cleaning: Professional Cleaning You Can Rely On

At New England Cleaning Services, Inc., we specialize in ongoing nightly decontamination services for commercial nuclear medicine pharmacies, PET centers, and radiopharmacies across New England. We understand the demands of high-volume isotope production and the critical importance of consistent contamination control for regulatory compliance and staff safety.


Why Nightly Professional Cleaning Matters

Facilities handling any radioisotopes face daily contamination risks. Depending only on internal staff for end-of-day cleaning can lead to inconsistencies, staff fatigue, and potential compliance issues. Our nightly service ensures your facility is thoroughly decontaminated after each shift—so you start every morning with a clean, production-ready environment.


Our Nightly Decontamination Service

We arrive after your production day concludes and perform a comprehensive, repeatable cleaning process tailored to commercial nuclear medicine settings:

  • Systematic clean-to-dirty decontamination of all high-use areas

  • Thorough cleaning of hot cell interiors, glove ports, and transfer tunnels


  • Application of proven agents, matched to your specific isotopes

  • Detailed documentation and reports for your Radiation Safety Officer and inspection records

  • Proper segregation and packaging of all radioactive waste generated during cleaning


Our technicians are highly trained and experienced in nuclear medicine environments. We work efficiently under your radiation protection program with minimal disruption.
