From October 11 to 17, we celebrate Medical Device Reprocessing Week. This year, SEIU Healthcare would like to send out a special thank you to all our Medical Device Reprocessing technicians who are working tirelessly behind the scenes to reduce the spread of diseases and viruses, including COVID-19.
With a shortage of equipment and supplies, sterilizing and reprocessing medical instruments has never been more critical. Without their commitment and hard work, we would not be able to survive this pandemic. On top of that, medical professions would not be able to perform vital procedures without sterilized tools the technicians provide every day.
It is always important to remember that each person in the health system plays a crucial role. Without them, facilities would not be able to operate smoothly and efficiently for the public. Please make sure you thank you Medical Device Reprocessing technicians for all the work they do each day!
