A Cross Company Educator Panel Discussion with Healthmark Industries, Propper Manufacturing Company and Key Surgical!

There is a lot to say about Sterile Processing and Operating Room industries, best practices, nuance(s), and how we perform our roles in “real life.” After reading through social media questions and answers, it became apparent that in the absence of an educator, answers given are often a hear-say, assumption, and sometimes blatantly wrong. As educators in the medical device world, we spend 100% of our days researching, confirming, and educating on the products you use every day. We want to make ourselves visible and available to YOU.

Ask the Educators! Objectives:
a. Discuss why is it important to evaluate fact vs. opinion and Experience vs. Education
b. Answer questions about best practices, nuance, and how both can be “right”
c. Detail industry guidelines that answer live questions from participants
d. Provide approachable answers and resources for sterile processing and operating room professionals

Four walls, a ceiling, and a floor. Nothing earth shattering…yet. Add in a few pieces of equipment,
a processing sink, a couple of supplies, and a dental professional on a mission — and you get a
room where infection control magic happens. Even if it’s actually more science than magic, what
happens in your clinic’s reprocessing room is still a big deal. Every other service provided by your
team hinges on things going well in that small room off the main hallway. But why exactly is this
room so important? This presentation will lay out 10 reasons why what happens in your
reprocessing space can make or break your dental practice.
