Summary
I have developed a strong foundation in sterile processing, focusing on the cleanliness of tools and adherence to safety standards throughout the decontamination, cleaning, and sterilization processes. I have gained hands-on experience participating in group labs, where I applied these practices to ensure the proper handling and sterilization of instruments. My training emphasizes the importance of maintaining a sterile environment, following protocols, and prioritizing safety to meet industry standards for patient care and operational efficiency.
