In the face of newly recognized pathogens and well-known microorganisms becoming resistant to treatment modalities, there’s growing pressure to reduce healthcare-associated infections (HAIs) and surgical site infections (SSIs). The proper processing of medical instruments is more critical than ever as a key infection-control practice for healthcare facilities.
This webinar explores what architects, designers, and facility planners need to know to optimize their instrument processing areas for efficiency, safety, and compliance, looking at both in-house and centralized approaches.
Learning Objectives:
- Understand the important role instrument processing plays as part of an infection prevention program
- How to standardize instrument processing areas effectively
- Best practices in designing for quality and efficiency
- How to leverage equipment manufacturers as a valuable resource when designing instrument processing environments
