What's the big deal with a one-way workflow in decontamination? Is it really a critical aspect of infection control or just a common sense application of traditional manufacturing in the Sterile Processing context? On this episode, we spoke with Steven Sutton, Director, Planning and Design Group with Belimed, to discuss what department design & layout have to do with fighting dirty in the decontamination area. Tune in to hear Steven's insight into this SPD 101 topic, what his opinions are if you're strapped for space, and the important implications that one-way workflows have across the rest of your department.
