Do you know what to look for when picking sterile instruments?

Where do you fit in the reprocessing cycle?

Thanks to everyone who stopped by our Reprocessing Practice Improvement Program (RPIP) booth at VGH for the National Nursing Week display. All programs using reprocessed sterile or high-level disinfected medical devices belong in the medical device reprocessing cycle – and the Medical Device Reprocessing Department isn’t the only group with a role to play. Click on the image below to find out where you fit in.

For those who participated in our wordsearch game, the answers are now available on our RPIP website.

Where do YOU fit in the Reprocessing Cycle?

If you missed our display, you can still play. A copy of our wordsearch game is available at the same location.

Questions about reprocessing critical and semi-critical medical devices can be sent to ac.hcvnull@gnissecorper.
