CSSD Design and Planning
Terry has travelled extensively throughout Australia, New Zealand, Malaysia, Scandinavia, Europe [France, Germany, the Netherlands, Belgium] and the United Kingdom, visiting Sterilising Service Departments wherever she goes. She has visited departments wherever she goes. She has visited departments that service just one Operating Room to facilities that service over 120 Operating Theatres from one centralised [off-site] facility.
This means Terry has seen many different ways of designing CSSDs, in addition to noting the operational differences that can help or hinder the efficiency in provision of CSSD services.
In-addition, Terry is aware of best practice requirements in CSSD design and operation, not only from the Australian perspective but can advise on the best practices currently in place in the United Kingdom, where millions of dollars have been spent in developing best practice guidance documents on CSSD design, Operating Suite design and in CSSD operational processes.
Terry has been involved in numerous projects advising architects, operational personnel, private contractors and government representatives on the requirements for well designed and equipped CSSDs to support safe, effective and efficient reprocessing procedures.
