A L C STERILE PROCESSING Within the walls of Sterile Processing (SP), care and perspiration bridge the gap between O N F E R C & X P l skill and precision—and between hope and assuredness.

SP professionals deserve the best education and that is what drives us to bring you access to industry experts, innovative products and services, and the opportunity to interact with professionals who, like you, make a difference where it matters most—customer service and patient safety.
