I have extensive experience with various sterilization equipment, including autoclaves, ultrasonic cleaners, and sterilizers. I am proficient in following strict sterilization protocols to ensure all medical instruments are properly cleaned and sterilized. My previous role involved daily monitoring of sterilization cycles, maintaining records, and troubleshooting any issues that arose.

I thrive in fast-paced environments and have developed strong organizational and time-management skills to handle multiple tasks efficiently. I prioritize tasks based on urgency and importance, ensuring that all sterilization processes are completed on time without compromising quality. Effective communication with my team also helps in managing pressure and meeting deadlines.

I strictly adhere to infection control guidelines by following established protocols for cleaning, sterilization, and handling of medical instruments. I regularly review and update my knowledge of current standards and regulations. Additionally, I maintain detailed records of all sterilization processes to ensure traceability and compliance with regulatory requirements.

I stay updated by regularly attending workshops, seminars, and training sessions offered by professional organizations. I also subscribe to industry journals and participate in online forums to keep abreast of the latest advancements in sterilization techniques and technologies. Continuous learning is crucial to maintaining high standards in my work.

In a previous role, we encountered a malfunction in the autoclave during a critical sterilization cycle. I quickly assessed the situation, identified the issue, and followed the emergency protocol to safely halt the cycle. I then coordinated with maintenance to repair the equipment and ensured that all affected instruments were re-sterilized according to the correct procedures. This experience reinforced the importance of quick thinking and adherence to safety protocols.
