What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that offers professional development and values commitment to patient care.

I am a dedicated Certified Registered Central Service Technician with extensive training and hands-on experience in sterile processing. My journey began with a strong academic foundation, earning a certificate in Sterile Processing Training and an Associate's degree in Justice. I have honed my skills through various roles, including my current position at Jefferson Surgery Center, where I am responsible for the decontamination, preparation, and sterilization of surgical instruments.

Throughout my career, I have consistently demonstrated my commitment to patient care and safety. My experience at Virtua Memorial Hospital allowed me to develop a deep understanding of the tools and processes essential for successful surgical outcomes. I take pride in maintaining meticulous records and ensuring compliance with sterilization protocols, which are critical for patient safety. I am eager to leverage my skills and experience in a role that offers opportunities for professional growth and development.
