High Level Disinfection and Sterilization Program

The Joint Commission (TJC) IC standard 02.02.01 that deals with high-level disinfection and sterilization is one of the most-cited standards of infection control at health care facilities. Instrument sterilization, scopes, and probes reprocessing are of utmost importance due to several recent high-profile cases of unsterile scopes and instruments being used on patients as a result of improper training. Hospitals and surgery centers struggle to survive and one incident that puts patient safety at risk due to poor training can create enough bad publicity to severely damage a facility’s reputation. 

IPCxpert specializes in ensuring hospitals and ambulatory surgery centers identify best practices of sterilization and high-level disinfection. We provide training, competency modules, on-site mock surveys, policy revisions, and best practice and publication guidelines. Procedures and suggested action plans combined with associated infection control standards are provided. 

Dr. Ghonim has years of experience in mastering the steps for pre-cleaning instruments and scopes at point of use, instrument/scopes transportation, high-level disinfection, sterilization, quality control of the processes, environmental monitoring in the sterilization department and requirement of storage location.

If your facility has uncovered issues or recently endured an accreditation survey that identified deficiencies in instruments or scopes procession, contact IPCxpert and we will help fix the problem by either being available on-site or via conference calls.
