WHAT WE DO
We sterilize medical devices and instrumentation used in surgeries - with a focus on Orthopedics.
That’s all we do - and we are setting a new standard for quality sterilization in the United States.
WHY THIS IS IMPORTANT
Sterile Processing Departments (SPDs) are one of the most important and yet most overlooked areas of a hospital or surgery center. This is a critical and growing problem as staffing shortages, poorly maintained facilities, and failure to adhere to the standards required to ensure patient and staff safety are increasing costs and potentially putting lives at risk. Even though sterilization is central to providing surgical services, it is often an afterthought for most facilities. The people who work in the SPD know it, and the deteriorating morale of the sterile processing workforce is adding to the decrease in sterilization competency.
Sterilization is ALL we do. Our people are the core of our company, and we treat them accordingly – like the rockstars they are. We’ve invested heavily in our facilities, equipment, and processes, and we do it right. Every time. We hire the best, and we don’t have to look far. The best sterile processing technicians and coordinators love what they do, and they want to work in a place where they are valued. That place is Instrumentum.
