We are getting closer to the end of year and that can only mean one
thing…budget planning for 2024. One of the most important budget line items, and one that is often overlooked, is funding for training and continuing education.
Our frequent purchaser program called "Sterile Processing Dollars
(SPDs)" has been developed with these issues in mind. Your institution will earn these SPD points with every purchase of a qualifying Healthmark product for your Sterile Processing Department (Central Supply, Central Service, Sterile Supply). These points
can then be used to purchase educational materials for you and your staff.
Healthmark has teamed up with HSPA, CBSPD, AAMI and Envision to provide
the most comprehensive educational materials and programs available for Sterile Processing/Central Supply Professionals and Technicians. Materials available include textbooks, workbooks, manuals, videos and more!
You can also use your SPDs to cover the cost of registration for conferences
- you or your organization will only need to pay for travel, room and board expenses. If you can't make a national conference, use your SPDs on registration for a local HSPA or CBSPD meeting. Check with your local group to see if they are a participating partner
in the SPD program.
