Our Quality Monitoring Practices
Endoscope reprocessing is a complex, multi-step procedure and we take it seriously.
- Highly trained staff undergo competency-based certification and regular evaluations.
- We utilize a comprehensive quality control program that monitors over 100 critical factors.
- Each instrument is tracked and quality-checked through every stage of cleaning, sterilization, and handling.
This rigorous process helps ensure your procedure is performed with safe, sterile equipment every time.
