AS 5369 is here!
Is your team across all the requirements and practices necessary for the effective and safe reprocessing, storage, handling and transportation of reusable medical devices and other devices used in human health care?
HICMR has partnered with Kineo to update their eLearning courses on Sterilising Services and Flexible Endoscopes and Ultrasound Probes to reflect the current Standard, and to ensure ready access to affordable, high quality, evidence-based specialty online learning.
HICMR Sterilising Services modules
These four courses have undergone a major review to reflect the requirements of AS 5369; Reprocessing of reusable medical devices and other devices in health and non-health related facilities.
The previous standard; AS/NZS 4187; Reprocessing of reusable medical devices in health service organisations, was superseded by AS 5369 in December 2023. This review includes the requirements of relevant revised or new normative references.
These courses are now delivered via Kineo’s cutting-edge Responsive technology, to bring consistency across HICMR’s full eLearning offering.
