How CensiTrac Enhances Sterile Processing Workflow and Team Coordination at St. Dominic Hospital

 

Chelissa Gray, a Sterile Processing Technician at St. Dominic Hospital in Jackson, Mississippi, describes CensiTrac as an essential part of her daily workflow. With CensiTrac, Gray and her team can track every surgical instrument from the moment it arrives in decontamination to when it’s delivered back to the operating room, ensuring full visibility and accountability throughout the process.

One of the features she values most is real-time productivity tracking, which allows technicians to measure and improve their performance continuously. This capability helps staff not only stay on top of their tasks but also push for higher standards each day.

CensiTrac also helps reduce confusion between departments. When instruments are still in the OR or misplaced, the tracking system makes it easy to verify their location, helping eliminate blame and streamline communication between the OR and sterile processing.

For Gray, the message is simple: CensiTrac works—and it makes a measurable difference in day-to-day operations.
