This 562-hour certificate is designed to introduce the primary responsibilities of a central sterile processing technician. The program includes practical applications of learned concepts and procedures. Topics include preparation, storage, distribution of instruments, supplies and equipment, quality assurance and inventory management. Upon completion, students should be able to apply the principles of sterilization/disinfection in the workplace, as well as the principles of distribution of instruments/supplies/equipment.
Upon successful completion of this program, a student may sit for the Healthcare Sterile Processing Association Credential (CBSPD) and Certification Board for Sterile Processing and Distribution (HSPA) exams. We recommended taking both exams so that students are employable at all healthcare facilities in the area upon successful completion of the examinations.
