I have over five years of experience in managing operating room supplies and equipment. My role involved overseeing inventory, ensuring timely delivery of supplies, and maintaining compliance with healthcare regulations. I successfully implemented a new inventory management system that reduced waste and improved efficiency, leading to cost savings for the hospital.

In the OR, I prioritize tasks based on urgency and impact on patient care. I use a combination of tools like task lists, calendars, and real-time updates to stay organized. Regular communication with the surgical team helps me anticipate needs and adjust priorities accordingly, ensuring smooth operations and minimal disruptions.

I ensure sterility by adhering to strict protocols for cleaning, sterilization, and storage of surgical instruments. Regular training sessions for staff on infection control practices and periodic audits of sterilization processes are key strategies. I also stay updated with the latest guidelines from health authorities to maintain the highest standards of safety.

I approach conflicts by fostering open communication and understanding the root cause. I encourage team members to express their concerns and work collaboratively to find solutions. By maintaining a respectful and supportive environment, I ensure that challenges are addressed promptly and effectively, enhancing team cohesion and productivity.

I introduced a just-in-time inventory system that reduced stock levels and minimized waste. Additionally, I implemented a digital tracking system for surgical instruments, which improved traceability and reduced the risk of errors. These innovations not only enhanced operational efficiency but also contributed to better patient outcomes and financial savings.
