In
order to carry the title of a Health Care Facility the entire
organization has a duty to every patient to provide the best
care possible.
Many facets of sterile processing are overlooked,
or, in some cases neglected entirely as an assessment might place
a low risk value on the events leading up to an avoidable infection
or even the death of a patient. Rather than simply following
the correct procedures a low risk assessment can result in deferring
the cost of proper procedures to that of coverage by malpractice
insurance, placing more importance on cost than on patient care.
As a professional in healthcare services
with over 30 years experience and education in the field C. Kay
Watson can assist and direct attorneys to identify the correct
documentation to request for production. Upon review of the documents
C. Kay can follow with identifying areas where the healthcare
provider failed to exercise due diligence and then provide expert
testimony as to the practices and standards of sterilization
as it impacts the care expected in hospitals, clinics and offices.
