RUMED Online Training Program:
The complexity of instrument reprocessing and related processes is increasing, requiring a deep understanding of correlations within various workflows. This expertise is crucial for making informed decisions and upholding the high quality standards in our daily work at RUMED. Achieving this requires a strong foundation of technical and procedural knowledge. To meet these demands, the RUMED Academy offers a comprehensive online training program consisting of two levels: 'Reprocessing Technician RUMED (Level 1)' and 'Senior Processing Technician RUMED (Level 2)'.
The modules are conducted in English, available also in Spanish in Latin America, and delivered by experienced international experts with extensive knowledge and practical experience in the field of application in the operating room (OR) and instrument reprocessing. The content of the modules is based on the comprehensive DGSV and HSPA courses, ensuring a well-rounded and relevant training experience.
Reprocessing Technician RUMED (Level I):
The Level I program consists of 14 individual modules (see below “Module Overview”). The target group is RUMED managers, RUMED technicians and other employees in RUMED with proficient English/Spanish language skills and practical experience in a reprocessing structure for medical devices.
Module 8.0: RUMED Management I:
It is about the management of the Central Sterile Supply Department (CSSD) and the essential role that cross-departmental cooperation plays in establishing effective interfaces to improve the supply of sterile goods in healthcare facilities. It includes coordinating and monitoring critical processes associated with the sterilization, storage, and distribution of medical instruments and consumables. Close collaboration between CSSD and other departments, such as the operating theater, nursing, and procurement, is critical to ensuring smooth operations. Through cross-departmental cooperation, CSSD interfaces are set up to enable efficient communication, information, exchange and workflow coordination. This approach enables the timely provision of sterile goods, traceability and compliance with standards. It also promotes effective cooperation in dealing with emergency situations. By promoting optimized processes and maintaining high standards through the interfaces, these joint efforts contribute to the overall safety and quality of patient care.
Certification:
Upon successful completion of this module, a certificate with 1.0 CE point by the HSPA is issued as proof of achievement. Each module concludes with a knowledge quiz. Once you have completed all modules and provided the corresponding certificates to the RUMED Academy, you will be awarded the Reprocessing Technician RUMED (Level 1) certificate.
