These standards, guidelines, and recommended practice are applicable for laundry and linen services provided throughout the United States. In addition, each state (with the exception of Iowa, Maryland, and Ohio) also has the autonomy to enact statutes that either support the national applications or require more stringent compliance for that state.
All the compendium information is public record, but has been gathered and compiled for ease of use by ALM members and is a benefit of membership. The index from the Healthcare Laundry Quality Guidelines document is available for non-members to understand the information available.
