SPD Fact Check - Workin' at the Cart Wash: Exploring SPD's Biggest Washer

Case carts in, case carts out—but do you really know what's happening inside your SPD's cart washer? On this episode of Beyond Clean, we're joined by Angus Bruce as he breaks down what modern cart washers are actually capable of—and where teams can run into trouble without realizing it. From when it makes sense to run instruments through them to why your chemistries might be expiring in the detergent room, Angus walks us through the decisions that can't be overlooked. He also highlights how gaps in maintenance and setup can quietly contribute to particulate contamination showing up in your surgical trays. Tune in as we take a closer look at one of the most relied-on pieces of equipment in your department. We hope you can join us!
