The Healthcare Laundry Accreditation Council (HLAC) is a nonprofit organization based in Frankfort, IL that inspects and accredits laundries processing reusable textiles for healthcare facilities. They adhere to the highest standards for patient safety and infection prevention, ensuring that accredited laundries have passed inspections of their facilities, policies, procedures, training programs, and customer relationships.
HLAC offers both accreditation and certification to laundries that provide quality healthcare textiles, demonstrating their commitment to excellence and guaranteeing the highest hygiene and safety standards. Their accreditation process includes routine microbiological and yeast mold testing on products, providing assurance that the entire textile process has been reviewed. HLAC inspectors are not certified as state or federal surveyors, but their standards are based on integrated requirements and best practices adopted by reference in the 2016 HLAC Accreditation Standards.
