These locations collectively serve a broad spectrum of patient and visitor needs, with a commitment to maintaining a high standard of cleanliness and hygiene crucial in healthcare settings.

The Housekeeper II position is a third-shift role requiring availability from Monday through Friday, 10:30 pm to 7 am, including rotating weekends and holidays. This schedule plays a vital part in supporting the healthcare environment during less busy hours, ensuring that patient areas, common spaces, and specialized care centers are maintained to the organization's exacting cleanliness standards.

As a Housekeeper II, the incumbent will be entrusted with delivering exceptional levels of cleanliness, quality, and service to patients, their families, and other visitors, which directly contributes to infection control and infection prevention efforts within the hospitals and medical centers. The role demands adherence to a comprehensive cleaning regimen known as the 10 Step Cleaning Process, which outlines precise procedures and chemical usage to meet departmental criteria. The housekeeper will also demonstrate proper infection control methods, including the use of personal protective equipment (PPE) and compliance with door precautions to safeguard patients and staff.

Responsibilities include routine cleaning duties and coordinating with management to address issues related to facility maintenance and service. The housekeeper will maintain cleaning supplies, closets, equipment, and carts, ensuring all are organized and in good working condition. Success in this position is measured not only by passing quality control inspections but also through positive customer feedback, underscoring the importance of communication and a customer service-oriented approach.

Educationally, candidates must have completed high school or hold an equivalent credential. For those assigned to the behavioral health setting, there is an additional requirement to complete Therapeutic Crisis Intervention (TCI) training within the first 90 days of employment and to maintain this certification throughout their tenure. Previous housekeeping experience is preferred, as is the ability to speak and understand English effectively to facilitate communication and ensure workplace safety.

This position is physically demanding, encompassing tasks that occasionally involve climbing stairs or ladders, lifting or carrying weights up to 60 pounds, pushing or pulling heavy objects, and working under varying temperature conditions.
