Job Title: Sterile Processing Technician

Overview

Covelo Group is seeking an experienced Sterile Processing Technician ( SPT ) for a hospital sterile processing department. If you’re looking for a new position and have a history of providing outstanding patient care, this could be the role for you.

Covelo Group’s expert recruiters connect qualified allied health professionals with top hospitals and healthcare systems across the U.S. We don’t place our applicants in just any job – we partner with you to match you with the right position to accommodate your lifestyle and advance your unique career goals. Whether you’re looking for a temporary position or a full-time permanent placement, we have excellent opportunities from coast to coast.

Job Summary

As an SPT, you will ensure the instruments, tools, and supplies used in medical and surgical procedures are clean and safe for use. You will be responsible for sterilizing surgical instruments and hospital surfaces, as well as assisting with cleaning and organizing surgical rooms. You must maintain inventory and see that instrument trays are stocked and readily available. You may also be required to maintain the equipment used for decontamination and sterilization.

This job entails a high level of responsibility for the safety of both patients and staff. Our ideal SPT candidate will display extensive knowledge of current standards for decontamination and sterilization procedures and equipment. You must have a detailed understanding of surgical instrument construction, a thorough education in germ theory and infection control, as well as an awareness of surgical /medical terminology, anatomy, and microbiology.

An SPT must possess excellent organizational skills, maintain an orderly workspace, and pay strict attention to detail.

We are seeking an SPT who is efficient, steady under pressure, and capable of prioritizing in a fast-paced healthcare environment.
