How do you keep yourself and your team safe?⠀ ⠀ Sterile Processing is high risk work. It is hard physically demanding work requiring an extreme attention to detail/mental focus. There’s no room for “auto pilot” or “drift”.⠀ ⠀ An added risk is that we have to clean sharps like scissors, hooks, towel clips and trocars. This risk is compounded when we receive knife blades and suture needles hidden in our trays. ⠀ ⠀ Early in my career I was cut by a towel clip that had been haphazardly thrown open in the bottom of a case cart. I went to pull out a container lid and my hand was cut by this hidden biohazardous sharp.⠀ ⠀ Cut resistant gloves, training, partnerships with the OR staff?⠀ ⠀ How do you keep yourself and your SPD staff safe?⠀ ⠀ #leadspd #calispd #spd #centralsterile #sterileprocessing #cssd #crcst #ishcsmm #cbspd #aami #aorn #surgery #scopes #wefightdirty #sharps #biohazard #safe #injury https://www.instagram.com/p/B5C9gYsBIqY/?igshid=b86dkj3qx1q7
