The Role of Our Centralised Sterile
Supply Department (CSSD)
Ensuring Infection Control
The Centralised Sterile Supply Department (CSSD) plays a vital role in infection prevention by cleaning, disinfecting, and sterilising Reusable Medical Devices (RMDs). This process is critical to maintaining patient safety and hygiene standards. Australian Water Asset Services supports CSSDs by delivering reliable, compliant water treatment systems essential for effective sterilisation and infection control.
Supporting Surgical and Clinical Teams
CSSDs ensure that surgical instruments and medical equipment are properly sterilised and available when needed. By maintaining a consistent and safe supply of sterilised products and services, CSSDs directly support the efficiency and safety of healthcare procedures. Australian Water Asset Services helps achieve this by providing tailored water treatment solutions that meet the stringent requirements of AS/NZS 4187:2014 Amd2.
Maintaining Compliance and Quality Standards
CSSDs must operate under strict regulatory frameworks, including AS/NZS 4187, to ensure high-quality reprocessing. High-purity water is a critical element of this compliance. Australian Water Asset Services partners with healthcare facilities to install and maintain water treatment systems that meet these standards, helping CSSDs uphold quality control and regulatory compliance across all sterilisation processes.
