Why Outsource Skin Excision Instrument Reprocessing
 

Save Valuable Staff Time

Skin excision procedures are often followed by instrument cleaning, inspection, packaging and documentation. By outsourcing instrument reprocessing, your team spends less time managing reusable instruments and more time focusing on patient care.

Reduce Compliance Work

Every skin excision instrument set is fully traceable throughout the reprocessing process. Sterilisation certificates and batch records are securely stored in your online clinic portal, making compliance documentation simple to access whenever required.

Continue Using Reusable Instruments

Reusable surgical instruments offer reliability, quality and familiarity for skin excision procedures. PodMed enables your clinic to continue using reusable instruments without the ongoing burden of cleaning, packaging, sterilisation and record keeping.

A Simple Process

After the skin excision procedure, place your used instruments into the supplied collection container. We collect, clean, inspect, package, steam sterilise and return your reusable instruments sterile, traceable and ready for your next procedure.
