Veterinary Clinic Infection Control Inspection Checklist

Maintaining rigorous infection control standards is non-negotiable in veterinary practice. From surgical suites to examination rooms, every surface, instrument, and procedure must meet strict sanitation protocols to protect both patients and staff.

This Veterinary Clinic Infection Control Inspection Checklist gives you a structured, repeatable way to document compliance across all critical areas—surgical suite sanitation, instrument sterilization logs, waste disposal procedures, and general facility hygiene. Whether you're conducting weekly audits, preparing for accreditation reviews, or training new staff on proper protocols, this template ensures nothing falls through the cracks.

Built with veterinary professionals in mind, the checklist covers sterilization validation, PPE compliance, biohazard handling, and sharps management. You can customize sections to match your state regulations and clinic protocols, then use Paperform's conditional logic to flag non-compliant items for immediate follow-up.

Use Stepper workflows to automatically route failed inspection items to the right team members, send corrective action reminders, and keep an audit trail of every inspection—turning your paper checklist into a living compliance system. Integrate with your practice management software, Google Sheets, or Airtable to track trends over time and demonstrate consistent adherence to OSHA, AVMA, and state veterinary board standards.

With Paperform's SOC 2 compliance and secure data handling, your infection control records stay protected while remaining accessible for internal audits, insurance reviews, and regulatory inspections. Create accountability, reduce risk, and keep your veterinary clinic operating at the highest standard of care.
