Chelissa Gray, a Sterile Processing Technician at St. Dominic Hospital in Jackson, Mississippi, describes CensiTrac as an essential part of her daily workflow. With CensiTrac, Gray and her team can track every surgical instrument from the moment it arrives in decontamination to when it’s delivered back to the operating room, ensuring full visibility and accountability throughout the process.

One of the features she values most is real-time productivity tracking, which allows technicians to measure and improve their performance continuously. This capability helps staff not only stay on top of their tasks but also push for higher standards each day.

CensiTrac also helps reduce confusion between departments. When instruments are still in the OR or misplaced, the tracking system makes it easy to verify their location, helping eliminate blame and streamline communication between the OR and sterile processing.

For Gray, the message is simple: CensiTrac works—and it makes a measurable difference in day-to-day operations.

I'm Shalisa Gray. I work at St. Dominic Health, and I am a sterile processing technician. I love census. I love sensor track. We are able to track everything from the time we get it to the d Indicon to when it goes upstairs. I love the tracking. Oh, and the productivity. I can test my watch my productivity and, do better than yesterday. I would tell them to get it and don't hesitate because it works. It works. It helps you keep up with everything. You keep up with your productivity and you can track sets. It won't be your responsibility if it's still in the OR and they come down to SBD looking for it.

Most reprocessing audit gaps trace back to training, turnover and leadership

Most reprocessing audit gaps trace back to training, turnover and leadership

Joint Commission findings on its reprocessing standard point mostly to training, turnover, leadership and missing ownership, not sterilizers. CDC epidemiologists and a 2019 review add cleaning verification and manufacturer instructions as the steps to watch. Audit people and process steps as closely as the autoclave.

  • 01Of the Joint Commission's list of reasons hospitals miss reprocessing standard IC.02.02.01, at least eight concern people, priorities and management, so competency records and a named process owner belong in the audit as much as sterilizer logs.
  • 02A structured audit tool that scores compliance step by step, as a 2020 BMC Health Services Research study did across 189 reprocessing cycles, shows where training hours should go; the Nepal hospitals scored best on cleaning and storage and worse on the steps between.

From Data to Decisions: Leadership, Trust, and AI in Healthcare with Dr. Julia Rehman

Healthcare leaders often struggle to convert abundant data and AI investments into actionable decisions that improve care. Dr. Julia Rehman emphasizes that effective AI integration requires human judgment in the loop, strong governance frameworks, and frontline staff engagement, especially in resource-constrained settings.

  • 01AI should target specific operational challenges like staffing, readmissions, and bed capacity, with humans retaining decision-making authority.
  • 02Few healthcare organizations have governance structures to ensure accountability, audit trails, bias monitoring, and oversight as AI adoption accelerates.
  • 03Data richness without strategic insight and human judgment informed by experience limits the value of technology investments in healthcare.

  • 02Heritage Imaging operates mobile diagnostic units across 14 states, providing PET-CT, MRI, nuclear medicine, ultrasound and echocardiography to critical access hospitals and community clinics.
  • 03Health system sourcing teams should request service-level commitments, credentialing procedures, cross-location read routing, and PACS/RIS/EHR integration details before contracting with coverage-focused or mobile imaging arrangements.
