The Do's and Don'ts of Moist Heat Sterilization. As a sterile processing service, it is important that we do not just see our processes as decimal points and percentages and equipment specifications. Thinking about the work that we do in terms of the lives protected and the community strengthened allows us to frame our minds to follow every specification to the letter. A process failure should be a “never” event and, if best practices are used, can be avoided. Incomplete or ineffective sterilization could mean that a patient is placed at risk of infection or inflammation of a surgical site. The standards for steam sterilization have specific requirements and before the process starts, the compliance of the equipment and the utilities that enable its use must be established. These are some of the areas where our team at QPRG can help you meet processing requirements to achieve the best outcomes for healthcare institutions and their patients.

Saturday Statistics: What is a safe hospital? Seems like a silly question to ask, how do you define safety in the hospital? Safe care for patients? Safe staffing? Safe treatment? Shouldn't the hospitals be a safe place to go? Well....recent studies have explored safety in regards to occupancy levels. A safe hospital is defined as 85% occupancy. A bit scary to see hospitals trying to function in well over 100% occupancy....NOT SAFE! P-Stik enables quick and accurate diagnostic results, providing safety and dignity for our patients. Also, P-Stik prevents inappropriate admissions to the hospital, ensuring you get the proper antibiotic treatment for urinary symptoms the FIRST TIME!
