Surgical Equipment Upgrade
Up-to-Date and Efficient
Safety, efficiency and best care possible!
These are the goals of Shuswap Lake General Hospital staff in providing patient care. Meeting those goals means having up-to-date and efficient tools.
Several items on a wish list provided by surgeons and reprocessing staff have been purchased, thanks to the Shuswap Hospital Foundation.
Anna Davis, lead tech in the Medical Device Re-processing Department is delighted her department recently acquired two state-of-the-art sterilizers – one provided by Interior Health and the other by the Shuswap Hospital Foundation.
Prior to the acquisition, the sterilization process was challenging and time-consuming with second-hand equipment – one washer handed down from the Kootenays and the other from Northern BC.
