    If you want to elicit groans and frustrated head shaking from a crowd of Sterile Processing professionals, mention the word: Clinics.

Tune in for Angela's perspective on what works, what doesn't, and how to leverage your tracking system to hardwire transparency and quality for your clinic customers. If your SPD supports internal or external clinics, this is one interview you will not want to miss!
