Hello, I’m thinking of joining a program for sterile processing. Do you recommend it? I’m currently working retail 😭

[@ee-mv3es]

I recommend it. I did SPD when I was in college and learned so much.

[@Rose_83k]

This is so cool I would like to study this ❤

[@l4mamii]

Wow!! I never knew how instruments were clean and then reused. Thank you to all of the professionals that taking part in this task.

[@ericjohnson884]

Instruments are not put in a dishwasher but an expensive surgical instrument washer designed specifically for surgical instruments

Great video been working in SPD & been a tech for 36 years 👍🏾
We are the unsung HEROS👍🏾

[@kayk8389]

Heros is a bit much

[@kelsgordy]

This is a very informative, concise video... for easy for any technician to understand and utilize...a must save

[@staceylynn4968]

Great video, good for those in school so we can see what's really going on

[@sjjsmcpherson]

Working in SPD is an amazing job. Just don’t call our equipment “super size dishwashers.” We aren’t dishwashers, nor do we work in a kitchen.

I'm 38 years old and looking for a new career. Do you think at this age you think I'm too old to enter this field?

Fun to see! I started in sterile processing at the U thirty years ago. I’ve worked at 8 other facilities since then, in several states, but always remember my time there as a good one 😊.

[@kuddusjajira8392]

I just finished course , waiting to take exam , this video makes me panic .

[@UofUHealthCare]

Don't panic!♥

[@ambitiousbeauty1013]

So was it hard? How's it going? I plan on taking up a sterile processing tech class. I'm excited and also scared.

[@CSSD.TECHNOLOGIST]

Informative Video 👍👍

[@brookst9384]

Why not “behind the scenes” and instead “ *lean* behind the scenes” 😅

[@Shay416]

I guessing because they don't show everything, lots of processing, paper work etc.
