Very detailed video. Awesome. I'm a retired CRCST, you would make a great instructor. Yes Quizlet was a life saver for me. If I had down time at work, I would jump on the computer and pull up Quizlet. You would be surprise what you can learn in 10 minutes. Again very good video
Thank you for explaining this book but how can we find it? could you please leave me the link of the book that I can buy it right away. Thank you again
You are welcome. The link is www.myhspa.org the are currently on a new edition for the book . So you might have to buy that one. Thanks for watching all the best 😊💗
I am so excited to go theough your study series! Colorado lainched the Care Forward Colorado Program which is going to allow me to attend Community College of Denver for the SPT for free! I am ready to learn all the things and am so excited to become of such a rewarding career! Thank you for putting your time into this to help others like me!
Awesome next video coming up tomorrow. Also is there anything that confusing you at the moment. I’d be happy to help. You can Dm me on instagram @dallesha_walters😊
This was sooo inspiring and encouraging! thank you so much for this video! Its right on time! I am currently self studying to take my exam in November! I appreciate this so much!
Thanks for the info. I'm one of the lucky ones to get the job without certification. However, I need to be certified within 6 months of my hire date. So what is your advice going forward. I think I'm bless because they starting me at 21.50 so I don't want to lose this opportunity.
Congratulations 🎊🎉🎈 that’s a big deal. My advice buy the book and start studying now! Don’t wait before you know 6 months is here. Also a new edition of the book is coming out, so buy that one. All the best 💗😊
Hi Dallisha, I wrote the test and pass 10 years ago that was 2013 but couldn't get an hospital for my internship so I gave up on it. Watching your video and wanted to come back. In my situation where should I start from? Thank you
Hi, I would research the job market and see if you could get a job without being certified,then work in getting certified. Also if that’s not an option you might have to find a program that offers internship. Hope this helps.😊
Your most welcome. I do highlight a whole bunch,when I study. I also take a lot of notes when I read through a chapter. Writing is reinforcement for me.
First let me say thank you for even having this platform for people like me it’s so important I achieve this for a better life . However my problems is remembering like the medical terminology and I find myself getting board through the chapters I’m only on chapter 4 so it’s early for me but I need to make something out of my self and why not this you know
Got it. Don’t sweat it! Move on from that chapter and circle back to it at the end. Medical terminology is important,however it’s not the entire exam. So keep it pushing and move in to another chapter.
Thank you so much for your videos and information! I'm thinking about taking a program as soon as I save up money. But it's so nerve wrecking too because I've heard that it's hard to get your 400 hrs in even if you do get Provisionally certified because they want some sort of experience. Are there any ONLINE crcst programs you can recommend?
Great question. You can self study to pass the exam. However you need to do 400hrs of hands on training. Most programs provide a facility to do so. Check your state requirements and also check to see if any hospitals in your area facilitate the class. Good luck😊
Great question if you purchase the workbook, it has questions and the answers are in the back of the book. I also suggest using quizlet or proprofs as a resource for quizzing.
👋 hi. I took a course,but all they did was read directly from the book🫣I really just did it to get in the hospital, since I knew nothing about sterile processing. I basically had to self study,to pass the exam. You truly don’t need a program for sterile processing,you can learn it on the job training.
Hi ! Im planning to do self study and get the provisional certificate. May i ask if there's any requirements to take the exam ? Do i need h.s diploma or any certification ?
Respect to alli massive & crew.(1/2 way tree native here) I'm taking the course now and could definitely use all the help I can get. Would you consider tutoring. I've seen some say they do but it just turns out to be easier said than done.
I checked the website,apparently there is a new edition coming soon. So the previous edition is not available on there website. I suggest waiting for the new edition since that will basically be the updated version. Keep checking the website or you can call and ask for a definitive date of release.
Hi dallesha, I’m new to this. I happen to come across your video about this program and I have been looking for ways to have someone enlighten me about it seeing your video gave me confidence with a good chill. I appreciate the work you put into it. God bless you. My question is, (1) Is it possible for me to buy the textbook and study it on my own without going to an accredited school offering it? (2) And while finished and comfortable reading for the exam, what is the process / how can I proceed to take the exam? (3) where can I get to buy the textbook to study by myself? Thank you I await your response.
👋 hi thanks for watching. I have a couple questions?What state do you live? Each state have different requirements in regards to school. Yes you can buy the book and self-study but you still need hands on training of 400 hours to be fully certified. The book can be purchased from www.myhspa.org hope this helps.
So most facilities prefer you do a program. They want you to have the hands-on training in most cases. Two options you can self-study and be provisionally certified but you would have 6 months to complete the 400hrs of hands on training before you can be considered fully certified. 2: find a school that offers the hands on training so you don’t have to worry about finding a place to get that done, less hassle in my opinion. Hope this helps.😊
Hello, where can I buy the book? I went to Amazon and they are selling the workbook book I want the textbook. I just want to know if it’s the same thing.
I self study Worked my butt off pass the exam got Résumé, professionally done now my exam is expired because here in Sacramento California i had a hard time getting my 400 hours than anywhere else.😢
Oh wow, sorry to hear that. Contact www.myhspa.org give them a call and explain your situation. Tell them you weren’t able to complete your hours and you did the best you could to find a place. Maybe they could help you or give you an extension. Try you never know if it will work. All the best💗
Hi great question. I’m my videos I basically spoke about reading the chapters and quizzing yourself often. If you have the manual it give you questions and a chapter quiz. I would suggest scheduling your exam so you have a definitive date to work towards. In regards to the externship, did you do a program or are you self studying? Thanks for watching😊💗
Where can I purchase this book? And is this the 8th edition? It says that youll need the 8th edition to study for the course because they havent update the courseto the 9th edition I need the 8th editions
Hello I'm Glad I found you. Ok, So I wanted to know where did you get the book? How much was it? So What happens if you don't renew your certification? I plan on doing Sterlie Processing and Then I plan On Doing Surgery Technology
Hi. The book is $125 it can be purchased on www.myhspa.org. If you don’t renew your certification within a certain period of time, you have to retake the exam. Hope I answered all your questions 😊
Hi great question. The program itself seems hard because the information is condensed. Meaning you might cover 3-4 chapters in one class and have a exam the next week plus cover 3-4 more chapters on that same day. However it’s doable once you stay on top of things. You can do it, it’s not impossible but will challenge you.💗hope that helps.
Hi. Thanks for watching. No you don’t have to go to college. Google Sterilization technician classes and you should see some school or programs pop up. I would suggest attending a school that have a internship opportunity as well. All the best💗😊
You can take the exam, but they want you to be in a hospital setting to work in each area of the department. Example:decontamination:knowing how to clean instruments etc.. the hspa website gives a breakdown of what they want you to do. Hope this helps.
@@dalleshaful you just applied for a internship at the hospital or you applied for a job? I’m going to a school next week and it 9 months long and pretty $$$ idk what to do
Wow 9 months? That’s a long time. My program was ran by a sterile processing agency that was in charge of the hospital sterile department, so once I passed the class exam I was able to do my hours at the hospital. If a program is too expensive and doesn’t provide a internship opportunity, that’s a 🚩 red flag. Depending on the state you live in, it can sometimes be difficult to get in a hospital to do your hours. So please think about it before you invest.
I like my job. I had the opportunity to relocate to another state with a job offer. Sterile process is always needed in hospital,surgery centers etc. you can even do travel technician lots of opportunities and the pay isn’t bad at all depending on what state you live. I can’t complain honestly.
You are absolutely correct. It also depends on the state you live in. I lived in NY and thank God my friend told me about the program. It’s actually no longer available. Here in Ohio it’s easy to get into because you don’t necessarily have to be certified to start.
@@dalleshaful I’m in ATL ga… I’m was going take this online program .. to get certified .. I feel like if I get certified I should be able to get a job
@@dalleshaful okay last question .. when I finish school they said I can get a certification.. but I have to get 400 hrs to be fully certified.. how can get a job if I never done this type of work .. most jobs want you to have experience
didnt pass huhu,,questions were not basic,,more like situational.,mybe 2% only was in that book..i did class for 3 months and i can count in my hands whts only in the questions..
@@dalleshaful i had a month,,i did alot of online practice tests,,websites of more than 5 ,re read my thick ass book,i was good on identifying instruments them boom 2 or 3 instrument i hve never seen,i did my 120hrs clinicals,,not even half of what i learn in class and hands on was on the test,jesus christ,,my teacher was right,,experience in the field is important i should hve waited for a experience,,its really nothin basic or easy,..125 questions i got 82 right still not passed 😂 its like questions you never expected and really dnt know because u dnt hve experience with different situations in the field…cnt elaborate more,,but im just bombarded that most of the questions is never discussed in my class or what i learn in my clinicals..
Hi just now seeing your comment. Unfortunately I don’t no much about 🇨🇦sterile processing in Canada. But I would suggest calling the hospital and getting in touch with the director of sterile processing. All the best 💗
If you have a facility that your able to do the 400 hours you can definitely do it on your own. But if not, it’s best to do a program that gives you the opportunity to do the 400 hours
Absolutely go ahead and do so. You will not regret reading and taking your time to go over the information. You will already be familiar with the contents of the book. All the best🎉😊
Basically you have to do mini -courses that have to do that have credits attached to them. Each year you have to submit 12 credits to maintain your certification. It’s self paced so you do it on your own. More information is at www.myhspa.org
Very stable job. Throughout the pandemic my job was very stable. It can be good paying based on where you live and how much experience you have. Hope I answered your questions😊
Thanks for watching 💗💗😊. They are on the 9th edition now. I would suggest calling them. To make sure the information your studying is good enough. I wouldn’t want you to study from that book and more information is added in the latest edition. Just to be in the safe side of things. All the best😊
Unfortunately I’m not able to. I work at a surgery center and decontamination area is not like a hospital decontamination area. I should have some footage of decontamination from my previous job. If I find it I’ll post it for you.
I passed my exam, that’s for your help.
Congratulations 🎉🎈🎊 😊💗you should be so proud of yourself! You did that🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉😊⭐️🍾

@@dalleshafuli took the cbspd btw
Ohhh, I don’t know much about that exam, only thing I know the certification is good for 5 years. Are you interested in taking the CRSCT?
@@dalleshaful im thinking about it now
Where do I find 400hrs in Canada ?
Hi just now seeing your comment. Unfortunately I don’t no much about 🇨🇦sterile processing in Canada. But I would suggest calling the hospital and getting in touch with the director of sterile processing. All the best 💗
What edition is this book
Sterile processing technical manual 9th edition.
Where do you get this book 📚
Www.hspa.org
So do I really need to pay for school? Or can I just study take the exam and do the 400 hrs on my own
If you have a facility that your able to do the 400 hours you can definitely do it on your own. But if not, it’s best to do a program that gives you the opportunity to do the 400 hours
Where will I set up to take the exam? Is there a website? And thank you so much 😊
The website is www.myhspa.org. They will give you a date and time and a location that’s closest to you to choose from. Your welcome. Hope this helps😊
Please which part of ohio offer these internships?
Hi what part of ohio? Most hospitals hire non-certified techs. You can basically get paid to learn.
Great information.....thank you!! If I'm taking the class in January would you still say order the book?
Absolutely go ahead and do so. You will not regret reading and taking your time to go over the information. You will already be familiar with the contents of the book. All the best🎉😊
@@dalleshaful Great 🙂 thank you!!
Your welcome 😊please update me when you take the Exam. If you have any questions you can reach out to me on Instagram @dallesha_walters
@@dalleshaful I appreciate you 🙏 ❤
Where do you get this book
Any externship in New Jersey or New York?
Great question. Are you currently in a program or are you doing self-study?.
Please help me to become a sterilize tech. How to start
Hi. 👋 what state do you live in?
Does thi job require night shifts
It’s not a requirement per say. Normally when a job is posted it shows the shift they are hiring for. So it would be up to you.
What are the 12 continuing credits
Basically you have to do mini -courses that have to do that have credits attached to them. Each year you have to submit 12 credits to maintain your certification. It’s self paced so you do it on your own. More information is at www.myhspa.org

You guys I’m trying so hard to learn this but my focus is not all there I need help
👋 hi, be more specific in regards to the help that you need. Is it understanding the chapters? Study strategies? What exactly do you need help with?.
@@dalleshaful thank you for your videos I just came across your page I’m subscribing Dallesha have a nice day
I know you said read the book but it's so hard 😫
It is 😩but you have to. You can do it day by day read a chapter and quiz yourself. You got this 💗😊
Come Tru mi friend
Thanks hun☺️
I’m taking my exam in may. The first book I was told to get was the d version which is the 7th edition. So I’m hoping this video helps me.
Thanks for watching 💗💗😊. They are on the 9th edition now. I would suggest calling them. To make sure the information your studying is good enough. I wouldn’t want you to study from that book and more information is added in the latest edition. Just to be in the safe side of things. All the best😊
I study from the workbook that’s better
Whatever works best for you😊
@@dalleshaful Are you able to show some behind the scenes footage
Of what exactly?
@@dalleshaful of the decontamination Area
Unfortunately I’m not able to. I work at a surgery center and decontamination area is not like a hospital decontamination area. I should have some footage of decontamination from my previous job. If I find it I’ll post it for you.
