Beyond Clean

Even though their tools and equipment touch nearly every surgical patient in the world, how much do you really know about the people, processes, and products used in the Sterile Processing industry? The Beyond Clean podcast offers a creative look into the inner workings of a healthcare industry surrounded by challenges, disrupted by change, and committed to getting it right — every instrument, every time. The team at Beyond Clean will bring on some of the biggest names in surgical instrument reprocessing and provide commentary on the biggest issues facing Sterile Processing professionals, facilities, administrators, manufacturers, and vendors. Join us every week as we explore the hidden world of one of the most important aspect of safe surgical care.

Old School vs New School: Is There an Instrument Tracking Generation?

With each new generation of Sterile Processing technician, the workforce gets more and more comfortable with technology, mobile applications, and software. But there’s still a large percentage of our industry who remember the days before departments were so computerized, wired, and required. On this Episode 3 of Season 16 “Yes, We Scan!”, we sit down with Angus Bruce, Beyond Clean Advisory Group member and CSS Director at Anne Arundel Medical Center to discuss how these different generational perspectives on technology impact how we staff, train, and lead our departments. Tune in for Angus’ insights on where the old schoolers have it right and what the new schoolers can teach us about how scanning technology can help us focus more on the things that really matter. We hope you can join us for this timely discussion!

The Real Dirty Data: Spotlight on Decontamination Scanning

The decontamination area of Sterile Processing has a lot of nicknames: “Big D”, “Decon”, “The Wall”, “The Hole,” “The Dirty Side.” Whatever your team calls it, one common theme seems to come up again and again — this area is often filled with systemic scanning challenges. On this Episode 2 of Season 16 “Yes, We Scan!”, we sit down with Michelle Sirex, Beyond Clean Advisory Group member and Education Specialist at Overlake Medical Center to chat about why scanning compliance is so problematic in decontamination. Tune in for Michelle’s thoughts on the potential data gaps during the decontamination phase of reprocessing, and why these missing data points can be a big deal for your team. We hope you can join us!
