Is Your Sterilization Room Compliant? A CDC Inspector Weighs In

Maintaining a compliant sterilization room has never been more critical. While staying up to date on the latest guidance may seem daunting, having the right equipment, tools and workflows in place can help minimize mistakes and decrease liability for your business.

Join India Chance, a dental hygienist, certified infection control educator, authorized OSHA trainer and CDC inspector for the Maryland State Board of Dental Examiners, for an expert perspective on best practices for maintaining a sterilization room, as well as proper sterilization protocols.

Ms. Chance will review the most common dental board violations made during the sterilization process, such as inadequate employee training, improper use of sterilization equipment or not having the proper personal protective equipment (PPE) — and how to avoid them.

In addition, Ms. Chance will provide a review of:
• Important CDC guidelines on proper setup of the sterilization center for optimal infection control
• OSHA safety regulations that affect the sterilization area and the infection control process
• Detailed instruction on the CDC recommended practices for instrument processing as a key infection prevention technique, including sterilization and disinfection of patient care devices
