In this CE-approved episode of Articles On-The-Go, Hank Balch considers a flexible scheduling model for SPD: -- "What if I were to tell you there is a better way—and that there are existing technologies in use in other industries that could completely change the way we envision a sterile processing department schedule?

In this episode of Articles On-The-Go, Hank Balch examines the difference between "special treatment" and "different treatment" -- "There is a common assumption in the industry that every member of the sterile processing team must be dealt with in the exact same way or else it’s not fair. While equal treatment is good when it comes to things like approving PTO requests and holding staff accountable to department policies, it can be counterproductive in a number of other important scenarios."

In this CE-approved release of Articles On-The-Go, Hank Balch considers an unconventional approach to staff competency -- "We put a premium on cross-training, while paying lip service (and low rates) for any type of true specialization in our field.
