In the COVID era, society has faced a number of difficult hurdles we have had to overcome, from learning how to wear a mask properly to figuring out how to buy groceries while staying six feet apart. Every one of our lives has been impacted by this pandemic and the healthcare industry is certainly no exception. In fact, in some ways, the healthcare industry has had to take the majority of this burden upon its shoulders.
Knowing the incredible lengths our healthcare workers have gone to keep us all safe has inspired CS Medical to provide solutions to keep our healthcare workers safe. In an effort to reduce in-person training sessions for our products and help you socially distance, we have developed an immersive, web-based training option for users of TEEClean® Automated TEE Probe Cleaner Disinfector.
Through our new, web-based training videos, TEEClean users will be able to learn all the basics of the device. Our training video reviews maintenance (like how to change filters) and, of course, how to use TEEClean to ensure best practices are followed at your facility. After users finish watching the video provided, they will be tested on their TEEClean knowledge. Once an operator completes and passes the test, they will be presented with a certificate; this certificate may be kept in the employee’s records In order to prove training and competency for audits by The Joint Commission (TJC) and others.
Web-based training provides your facility with several benefits. In the first place, it allows healthcare workers to socially distance rather than having them gather into a crowded room for a lengthy demonstration. Not only that, but it also eliminates the need to clear out huge blocks of time for the entire staff simultaneously and disrupt workflow. Online training allows flexibility for training each employee whenever is easiest and works best for the team, any time of day and any day of the week.
Ensuring that your staff is fully trained in the operation and maintenance of your TEEClean is of paramount importance, and not just because it’s required by many accreditation agencies, like TJC. Keeping staff well trained in the use of the equipment utilized at your facility standardizes procedures and greatly improves outcomes. This can help your facility contribute to our effort to put an end to healthcare-associated infections (HAIs), which is pivotal to achieving TJC’s Top 5 National Patient Safety Goals for 2020.
Lastly, TEEClean’s web-based training module will help give your healthcare professionals the confidence they need to perform their daily duties without requiring constant supervision and without needing help from management or other employees. This sort of self-assurance is invaluable for any team in order to function best. Each staff member will be fully informed on the proper procedures and can help provide the constant and seamless care required by every healthcare facility.
Fully training your healthcare professionals is of inestimable value to your facility both now during the COVID era and beyond. CS Medical is making huge strides in helping you and your staff stay healthy so that you can continue to do the hard work of helping our families recover and get back on their feet. Thank you for serving us all so well!
