On this CE-approved re-release of Articles On-The-Go, tune in for leadership insights on handling annual reviews in your Sterile Processing department: "As with everything else you do as a leader, you are always teaching with your actions. You are either teaching your team that you believe in them and want them to succeed, or you are teaching them that their success is none of your concern. Yes, more than likely you will have to give low performance reviews. And most of you will have at least a few technicians that highly exceed expectations. But your goal as a leader should be to ensure that everyone and their mama knows what those expectations are before the scores are tallied and the pay checks are signed. The rest is up to them. May the scores be ever in their favor!"
