Utilizing Reporting in CensiTrac to Improve Efficiencies in Sterile Processing Departments

 

CensiTrac’s robust reporting capabilities can provide sterile processing departments (SPDs) with a wealth of opportunities for efficiencies. Dalton Carter, Technical Support Manager at Censis, discussed some of these CensiTrac features with host Hilary Kennedy.

“SPD’s need to report on a wealth of important information from sterilization records to employee productivity to anything with case tracking, and knowing what was used on a patient specifically,” Carter said.

Competencies within CensiTrac can show which employees are trained in certain areas and provide sign-offs for accountability. “Along with that, you can see data points of where your trays are scanned throughout your entire department, including the OR if you’re scanning there,” Carter said.

Although Carter said one of the most popular reporting features in CensiTrac is the employee productivity report, his personal favorite was a general inventory throughput report due to the ability to customize it in hundreds of ways.

“There are so many different reports you can run,” Carter said. “Whether it be compliance or where a tray is, where an instrument is, there are different reports you can run to get the filters that you need.”
