A Question from a Trainee Technician

Article

Question: I am a trainee technician working in the central supply and sterile department. I'd like to know more about the sterilization process as well as sterile storage. -- HBL, Singapore

Answer: The very best way to learn about the CS department and sterile processing is to take a certification course through an accredited national organization.  I am a part of an international organization called IAHCSMM.  Go to www.iahcsmm.com for information on how you can enroll in an accredited certification course.
