On Demand Replay

About this webinar

Over the last year CMS, The Joint Commission and AAAHC have put a strong emphasis on surveying facilities for proper instrument cleaning and reprocessing practices. In this program, we will discuss the position statement of each organization as it relates to sterilization and infection. In addition, we will highlight several “key” areas of focus, including “immediate use” sterilization.

Objectives:

Understand CMS, The Joint Commission and AAAHC’s position on sterilization & infection control.
Learn the importance of self-auditing their facility.
Be able to identify best practices for instrument reprocessing.
Have a clear definition and understanding for flash, or “immediate use” sterilization.

This webinar is a great way to review your sterilization processes and make sure you are in compliance with current industry standards and recommendations. One registration can be used with a speakerphone to inform and educate your entire staff. Take advantage of this today using our easy web-based registration system.
