Description

Working in Sterile Processing is grueling. On the one hand you’re pressured to rush through your tasks to keep up with the demands of the OR and clinics and on the other hand you are being asked to take your time, pay attention to details, don’t skip steps, stop the line when it’s necessary. Oftentimes the dissonance between these two things is mind-numbing. So, what motivates us to make the right decisions when we are experiencing pressure from all sides? What better way to explore what it takes to care under pressure than by hearing directly from an enucleation surgery patient and fierce Sterile Processing advocate and her surgeon.
