Case Study: Streamlining Sterile Processing for the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs
This renovation project aimed to enhance the Sterile Processing Department’s (SPD) workflow and capacity while supporting community-based outpatient clinics.
Problem
The current SPD layout lacked efficient flow for staff and storage, limiting its capacity to handle growing demands. Locker and shower facilities required upgraded plumbing systems to accommodate staff needs without disrupting sterile operations.
Solution
Above Group reorganized existing SPD spaces and introduced lounge, locker, and shower areas—incorporating reliable water supply and drainage engineering solutions with our plumbing expertise. To maintain sterile processing throughout construction, a Steris mobile SPS trailer was positioned outside the connecting corridor, ensuring uninterrupted patient services.
Results
The new layout and updated plumbing systems provide improved workflow, comfort, and capacity for SPD staff, supporting enhanced patient care. Simultaneously, the mobile trailer solution preserved critical sterile processing operations, minimizing downtime and optimizing hospital efficiency.
