THROUGH DESIGNAND PLANNING
Anyone can sell you a washer (or sterilizer). Even the mostinnovative STERIS equipment and product solutions only get you
halfway to the finish line.

Our meticulous approach from the beginning lays
the groundwork to CONNECT your products,equipment and services that help you be successful.

SUCCESS BEGINS WITH SPACE AND
WORKFLOW.
Only STERIS analyzes your layout and traffic patterns firstto determine how to increase productivity and save time.
With a growing patient population and rapidly changing
healthcare environment, you cannot afford delays,
bottlenecks or inefficiencies.

Since space is inextricably linked to your workflow, planning is avital part of your design and long-term success.
STERIS looks beyond equipment and drawings toassess the impact of space and staffing on equipment
utilization and movement through your department.
Capacity planning with a STERIS Processing Solutions
Manager (PSM) ensures your department’s success, while
establishing a framework for current and future decisions.
Our PSMs review your average and peak day capacity,
prep sinks and assembly stations, as well as your current
equipment to assure instrumentation can flow throughyour department without unnecessary backlogs.
STERIS further delves into your process with on-site
capacity planning assessments. You’ll see hour-by-hour
assessments of capacity, throughput and staffing so you
can better understand your real-life operational issues.

Staffing analysis based on capacity and throughput byhour helps you understand where and when you needstaff most.

professionals, our Processing Solutions Managers

construction and department expansion. We consider
every detail to optimize your department to best serve
