Keeping sterile processing equipment running is the goal of all facilities, biomeds, and sterile processing leaders but did you know records from maintenance, repairs, and quality assurance results are part of a comprehensive survey?  These distinct departments must work together to ensure the documentation is retrievable and complete. Let Andrey Tsupruk walk you through the many ways this can be accomplished in the digital age.

Objectives:

• List service documentation requirements for a successful accreditation survey.
• Compare and contrast service documentation retention methods used in healthcare facilities
• Leveraging technology to improve equipment servicing efficiencies

Emergencies by nature are unpredictable, but rapid, well organized emergency response is crucial for patient and employee safety. Join Stephanie Boroz, Associate Director of Sterile Processing at Wyoming Medical Center as she investigates the risks associated with day-to-day processes, equipping staff with the necessary knowledge and tools, and fostering a culture of safety.

Objectives:

• Recognizing the risks within sterile processing.
• Prevention and mitigation of environmental hazards.
• Responding to chemical spills.
• Managing exposure to bloodborne pathogens.
• Response to event, resource, and equipment disruption.
• Recovery and stabilization efforts

Dive into best practices for point-of-use treatment, manual and automated cleaning, and using rigid containers—all curated from our most popular webinars. Plus, join the fun with an interactive bingo game featuring sterile processing key terms. It will be a great way for technicians, managers, and infection preventionists to celebrate together.

Objective: 

• Identify best practices in point-of-use treatment, manual and automated cleaning and disinfection, and rigid container use to optimize sterile processing.
