Sterile processing technicians keep every surgical and procedural instrument safe to use. Typical duties include decontaminating returned instrument sets, inspecting and testing instruments for damage and function, assembling trays to count sheets, operating and documenting steam and low-temperature sterilizers, and tracking loads so each set can be traced back to its cycle.
Per-diem sterile processing shifts are typically posted by hospital sterile processing departments and surgery centers when case volume, instrument turnaround or staff coverage runs short. Because the department supplies the operating room, reliable technicians who already know common instrument sets and sterilizer documentation are especially valuable for flexible, self-scheduled work.
Credential and licensure expectations vary by state and care setting, and typically include:
- A sterile processing certification (such as CRCST or CSPDT) is commonly requested; some states require certification by law
- Recent hands-on decontamination, assembly and sterilization experience is typically expected
- Familiarity with instrument tracking systems and sterilizer load documentation is frequently requested
- BLS is requested by some facilities; requirements vary by state and setting
