Sterile Supply Technician Jobs in Maryland

A Sterile Supply Technician, also known as a Central Processing Technician or Sterile Processing Technician, plays a crucial role in the medical technology industry by ensuring that all surgical tools and supplies are sterilized and ready for use. These professionals are responsible for cleaning, sterilizing, and assembling surgical instruments, equipment, and supplies. They also examine equipment to detect leaks, worn or loose parts, or other indications of disrepair.

Before becoming a Sterile Supply Technician, a person may have job roles such as a Medical Equipment Preparer, Operating Room Assistant, or Medical Assistant.
