Beyond Clean Canada: Beyond Borders: Building Sterile Processing Systems That Last

Sterile Processing professionals around the world show up every day with passion, resilience, and commitment to #FightingDirty! But what happens when they don’t have access to the tools and education they need? In this episode of Beyond Clean Canada, we’re joined by Christina Fast—global safe surgery advocate and founder of the Sterile Processing Education Charitable Trust (SPECT)—to explore what sustainable education looks like in low-resource settings. Christina shares how a life-changing visit to a hospital in Sierra Leone sparked her global mission to equip, train, and empower local Sterile Processing teams with systems that last long after the classroom. From hands-on cleanups and glow-in-the-dark microbiology lessons to fully customized programs rooted in local needs, SPECT is changing the game—one department at a time. Buckle up for a conversation full of heart, grit, and global impact!
