Quotes
“They need to be autoclaved because you are injecting with that, and there is a potential for blood exposure”
“Anything that can be sterilized… should be sterilized”
“Don't cut corners by using high level disinfectant or using cold sterile when you can autoclave the instrument”
“I’ve never seen so many people taking photos of the slides, and looking at each other like ‘oh my goodness… we don’t do this’”
“Once a breach happens, that responsibility of what that clinic needs to do, is a lot”
“You have to prove that no one in your clinic at that time had hepatitis or any of the blood borne pathogens like HIV to say your risk is zero”
“People almost faint when I tell them that they need to document the time, temperature of every load in their autoclave”
“If we take time to do this correct, we don’t need to worry about anything else”
“I go to a lot of conferences, but OSAP is one of the best conferences"
