Advanced Solutions for Optimum Results

Central Sterile Program

Ecolab Central Sterile Program has been developed to improve and monitor your processes to lead to greater patient safety. It also delivers cost savings and highly educated CSSD staff.

Preventing Surgical site infections (SSI’s) is a key concern for all Central Sterile Services Departments, due not only to the risks they pose to patient health, but also the financial implications for the facility. One of the possible reasons of an SSI is when the reprocessing of surgical instruments falls short of the highest hygiene levels.

At Ecolab, we recognise that preventing SSI’s is important, therefore cleaning instruments is important. Our passion is supporting you as a CSSD Manager to ensure a consistent cleaning of the instruments reprocessed in your sterile department. Therefore we have developed our comprehensive Central Sterile Program, a dynamic and systematic approach that embraces four key pillars.
