SANITATION STANDARDS

​

​

As a former Surgical First Assistant trained in Sterile Technique, I know FIRST HAND what it REALLY takes to meticulously cleanse and thoroughly sterilize tools and instruments, and what is needed to properly disinfect specific materials, surfaces, equipment and linens.

All toys, implements and instruments are meticulously cleansed using Cavicide, Betadine, Sporiciden, Citrix 3, Isopropyl Alcohol, Bleach, and other anti-bacterial/anti-viral/anti-fungal agents, then sterilized utilizing UV light.  

​

Medical implements and Surgical Instruments are sterilized to Hospital Grade Level One Trauma Center Operating Room Standards utilizing Dry Heat Autoclave with sterilizer indicator.  
All leather and latex is wiped down with the highest quality disinfectants.

All linens and towels used that are not sterile disposables are thoroughly washed using hot water and bleach. 

Washed towels are kept in the towel sterilizer/warmer.

Sterile covers are used on all probes, premium nitrile surgical sheaths are used on all insertion tools, and sterile silicone finger sheaths are used for larger sounding instrumentation.  During procedures involving injections or suture, I practice sterile technique while creating a sterile field, and use sterilized sheets, sterile surgical gloves and sterile surgical drapes.
