- Steve Yanovsky (RN, Rt-R, EMT-P, CRCST, CIS, CER, CHL) explains the department of sterile processing in detail. Great for CRCST, CIS, CER, CHL.
If you want to understand the how's and the why's of sterile processing, this is a great place to start.
hey Steve your a amazing teacher I took the exam 4 months ago for the first time failed I went back home to recuperate my thought process of thinking I cant do this and telling myself I will do it i will accomplish my goals in life so fast-forward months later i read the chapters and watch your videos and took notes as well. I took the test on July 2 and I pass!!!!!thank you so much next stop off to nursing school in fall.
That is awesome, congratulations 🎉🎉🍾🎊 As for nursing school, great idea, make sure you have a great support structure at home and beyond. Nursing school is not hard but it is difficult. You will need support.
@@BostonCareerInstitute yes when u mean by support u mean financial or people who’s there I’m planning on working part time to focus on my studies I know it will be difficult but I can do it
@@yaasy77smart1 most important of course that you are financially secure. However, it is equally as important to have mentors and supportive people around you.
Thank you sir, I will?
Hiiii Id to thank you for your videos. Even if I read my chapter book I have watched your videos. It helped me alot on passing the Exam. I passed on this last 8th edition for CRCST! I still watch your videos to this day
I love the way Steve teaches , he is very specific,detailed, most importantly, clear and to the point.
@@mulinda71 thank you :) success and blessings
I took my exam today and passed, thanks to this awesome teacher. Can't say thank you enough!! My back story: currently applying to dental schools and doing uber but looking for a more stable job while in dental school, I randomly came across the sterile program on a RUclips shorts around Jan 23, I religiously listened to Mr Steve while driving uber, downloaded cheat sheets that I studied every single day for 2 weeks.
Didn't purchase any books, or bootcamps but my science background was very useful. You can totally study on your own if you are disciplined.
Everything he teaches IS ON THE EXAM. Takes notes as he speaks . Goodluck!
Awesome story. Thank you for sharing and good luck in dental school.
What’s the cheat sheet? How do I start studying from the beginning?
@@MASKEDUPNOCASE no cheat sheet. Purchase the book and the workbook and follow the chapters in the book with the videos.
@@BostonCareerInstitute where to purchase the book and workbook online?
@@4reel162 HSPA website, go to store and it will be there.
Steve, I love your videos so much. Thank you for sharing them! I’m almost done with sterile processing classes, and will take the CBSPT soon. Whenever I read something in the textbook (which is so boring lol!) that YOU have done videos on, it all makes so much more sense to me 😊 You’re a great teacher!
Wishing you much success and thank you for your post.
I haven't dismissed the idea to get into a healthcare career. After my attempt as an SPT, I was grateful for the opportunity so the recruiter is still in touch with me to help me find something.
Keep on the good work!
Thank you. You as well.
How’s it going man
@@BostonX-ce7yp 👋
I started Sterile Processing 6 months ago. I have been doing well and I asked to get certified 2 weeks ago since I finished my 400 hours. I'm in talks with my manager to move forward since and see what other positions I can find since I have a bachelor's in science and I will put it to use.
Thanks for asking
@@drakealexander6668 hell yeah!! Keep going dude you’re inspiring brother!!
@@BostonX-ce7ypill you have a job in that field as a SPT no matter what? For example being a rn nurse or having a degree in the medical field will have a job regardless forever cause people will be needed right? I'm just asking.
Thank you so much for your in-depth explanation. I love your videos and continue to learn from them.
excellent lecture, makes it so easy to understand
This autocorrect messed me up, I meant to say, let it be known that you are the best instructor.
I can take that too :))
I so love 💕 your teaching. God bless you sir.
Thank you and may G-d bless you too.
Thank you soooo much Steve!
It was great
Yes very helpful thanks so much
I've been waiting lessons from him for long, time!so excited!awesome!
I must have felt it. Thank you for your patience:)

Hey New Video!! Fantastic!! I haven't taken the CRCST exam yet but I'll be getting my study info from your channel ! :)
Perfect. You will succeed!
Learning so much from your teaching. Subcribed Thank you!
That is awesome. Thank you
How do I watch your videos from the beginning to study for sterile processing? I’m taking classes in April. I just want tk self study until then. ? Where do I start
I passed my exam!!.. guys, it's a lot of new material on this exam it's not even funny, but lol
Congratulations 👏🎉👏🎉 thank you for sharing. Success and Blessings
Hi Steve thanks for your efforts you’re amazing teacher I gonna take my bord exam next week soon CBSPD . What you gonna advise me thank again!!
I wish I could be more helpful with cbspd, but I have never taken their test. Having said that, all info is the same as with HSPA. Watch the videos and take notes you will do great.
Hi Steve, I took the CRCST in December and passed. I received a Provisional Cerification because I haven't had any luck landing an externship to complete my 400 hours of hands on training. I figured that passing the CRCST would let potential employers know how serious I am about pursuing sterile processing. Unfortunately, I haven't had much luck getting interviews here in California and it's discouraging to say the least. Do you have any advice that can help me in my pursuit of landing an entry level position in sterile processing? My provisional Certification expires in May 2023, please help. Thank you.
Of course. Reach out to me via email s.yanov@bostoncareer.org
I'm curious to know did you ever land a job with the provisional certification? I'm honestly thinking about taking this route myself but unsure of the likelihood of securing employment in SPD without work experience.. hope it all worked out for you 🙏
@@VioletRaya Hello, unfortunately it did not workout for me here in California. I did however land one interview but I was unsuccessful in securing employment in this field. I would suggest this route if you are located outside of California and if hospitals in your area offer externships. I hope this helps, best of luck to you in your career.
It's been about 6 months since I started my sterile processing job. I'll even be taking a class to prepare for certification soon. Thanks for your videos. Do you have any tips on how to be effective productivity-wise? I know I'm somewhat new, but I feel so slow compared to my coworkers despite my efforts.
Productivity working in the department or in learning?
@@BostonCareerInstitute In the department, like with assembling trays or working in decon. I try to work fast and carefully inspect, but I just don't feel like my pace is as good as it should be.
@@oran_yu_rang1147 before you question your productivity, look at your performance vs that of others. If you actually do the work to standard and others do not, you are probably OK productivity wise. Answer this question first then get back to me.
@@BostonCareerInstitute what book in learning can I use for my certification and studying
@@ninaleon5048 HSPA 9th edition
This is a great video - I learned so much! I've been interested in this career for a while, but I didn't know they keep it so cold in the "dirty" area. I get cold very easily. This may be a silly question, but does anyone know if you're allowed to wear layers of clothing under your scrubs to stay warm?
Great question. First and foremost thank you for watching and your post. Second, you are certainly allowed to wear anything you wish under the uniform. Plus, the waterproof garments keep you warm.
@@BostonCareerInstitute Thank you so much for the quick reply! I'm looking forward to watching more of your videos.
@@BostonCareerInstitutethat's what I want to know but you answer the question because I'm just anemic
Hey Steve! I do not have the workbook or book. I’ve been self study by watching your videos and using study guides from Quizlet. Can you give me any advice? I have workers in sterilization for 7 years on an airforce base but it’s a small clinic so we do not deal with case carts and we only have certain instruments. Advice would be grateful.
You gotta get the book not necessarily the workbook. Use that and my videos and you will be ok. Air force experience is great, hospitals love military people. You don't have to advertise that you didn't do too much there. Experience is Experience!!
Thank you professor excellent posts.
Thank you, success and blessings
good teacher
You are an awesome teacher.! Thanks for posting your videos. I am preparing to test soon. I have one question, do the carts get sterilized?
Good luck on the exam 👍. The carts undergo high level thermal disinfection inside the cart-washer.
Hi, how can I take this classes, I am interested. Thanks
Thank you for this video. I will start my Sterile Processing class in the Fall of 2023. Would you do me the honor of answering some questions I have written up for an informational interview?
I’m applying for scholarship and an informational interview in Sterile Processing is one of the requirements. I’ve found it difficult to get someone who would do an interview with me.
I would appreciate it so much if you can or can help me with someone in that field or a hiring manager.
Thank you!
Not sure I understand what you are looking for but I'll be glad to help. Please clarify what you need help with. All the best. Steve
@@BostonCareerInstitute thank you for responding to my comment.
An informational interview is an informal conversation, usually lasting 20-30 minutes, with a person working in a career field that interests you.
The organization I am seeking scholarship from (WorkSource Oregon) to study for Sterile processing requires an information page of my Informational interview with someone who works in Sterile processing department or someone who hires a sterile processing tech.
I thought that you could help me with this.
I hope this explanation helps.
@@orevaogheneokotie4863 makes sense. I believe I can help.
I want to join a class because is not easy learning on your own for the first time. Please how can one join your class..? I need help
Email me on Monday s.yanov@bostoncareer.org I'll put you in touch with someone.
Hi Steve, i have a question pls, i just bought the book and im self studying , can i volunteer at the hospital or wait to get my provisional certificate and look for training, thank you so much
Glad to help. You are more likely to get a job with a certification and no experience than get a hospital to take you on as a volunteer. The reason is they can't take on the liability. So look for a job once you pass. Hope this makes sense.
@@BostonCareerInstitute thank you so much
Do you think if I were to self study ...hospitals will be okay with that?
@@7335alex sure! The hospitals only care if you have the national certification.
simple question , how long after completing the 400 does it take to receive full certification. Just finished so want to know how long I should expect to wait.
As long as it takes HSPA to process your paperwork. Sometimes it is almost instant and some times not you just have to follow up.
Good Day I'm seriously embarking in this career path however I am from the Caribbean places I have email stated I can do STERILE PROCESSING on line however would need the 400hrs practical training My country doesn't have center for such training can you advise what can be my next step, I am interested in this field so I can get jobs aither in Canada or USA.PLEASE ADVISE.
Question... Where can I sign up to take your course and how much is it?
Give the school a call 888-383-6058 or go on www.bostoncareer.org
Love your videos
mrs shanks was the best also...
Are there any specific chapters in the book you want us to read or do you recommend reading every chapter in the book? The book is so BORING!
I understand about the book. However, you must read it to get used to the language of the exam. Here is a link to HSPA where the exam outline is. acrobat.adobe.com/link/review?uri=urn:aaid:scds:US:ff23e6a1-2663-3d19-8142-b72da458b29a
Hii in what order should i watch the videos please? Trying to take it as a class and would like to go in order
Really makes no difference at all. Each topic stands on its own. However, if you really want, start with the microbiology, environmental, surgical instruments, cleaning, disinfection, preparation and packaging, sterilization high and low temperature, I'm not sure if I have anymore posted.
thak youu@@BostonCareerInstitute
I may have missed it, but what is carryover?
@@paccbutler1826 perhaps crossover. That's the part of the department where one may cross from clean to dirty and vice versa or pass instruments back to decontamination from assembly if it wasn't processed properly.
Hi, in what specific order should I watch the videos in?
@@justmell4623 get the HSPA sterile processing manual and follow my lectures as the book progresses.
Will this video and all your other videos from 9 years ago be on the newest IASCHMM exam? First time taking the exam. Please help!
For sure! Watch and take notes of what's on the board. Have fun.
How do I watch your videos in order?
You need the HSPA central service tech manual and workbook. Read the chapters and follow with my videos.
@@BostonCareerInstitute can I use that book if I’m studying for CSPDT EXAM? Is it true that it’s harder
@@MASKEDUPNOCASE I'd use their book. The concepts I teach are the same, there is no difference. I don't think the exam is harder if the material is the same.
New follower here
@@sofiamusabyimana4763 thank you and welcome aboard
Please what is the name of book
HSPA CRCST manual 9th edition
Hi sir can i ask question? In recall what is the last thing to do?
Please clarify your question. I do not understand.
In load recall what is the last thing to do? When it comes to this situation. inform the supervisor, call the manufacturer
,Check the loading list
,Sterilize the items, etc. what is the last thing to do?
Thank you
@@dliqsfamily8649 there is no way to answer this question without knowing the policies of the hospital/department. Usually, the last thing to do involves reviewing the circumstances behind the failure and preventing their recurrence. The list you provided ends with "etc" so I don't know what that means. I would say from your list that notifying the manager would be the last thing to do. The logic behind that is that the manager will contact the chief of surgery to deal with the clinical repercussions. Again, look at the policies and procedures of your department and go from there. Details are important.
Okay sir thanks for the help. God bless you always stay safe.
How do I get in on the class
Go to www.bostoncareer.org and go from there :)
Is it possible to take the exam online to be sterile technician? I'm from Iraq. After completing all the videos, I wish to take the exam online and get a certificate
I don't know if the exams are offered in Iraq. There is no online exam. You may want to check if there is a Prometric exam center in your area. I did send them a request. If the get back to me I will let you know.
@@BostonCareerInstitute I don't want to take the exam in my place. I want to take the exam from your org and get a certificate freely online due to my circumstances
@@zeyadsabti5484 my personal certificate isn't worth anything. You'd have to take the international certification exam from HSPA. Www.myhspa.org they administer tests through Prometric.
No testing centers in Iraq. Sorry.
@@BostonCareerInstitute I don't want to get my certificate from Iraq. I want to be certified by USA entity. I have been studying different materials in anatomy and pharmacology just by youtube. I speak English, Arabic and espanol. Thanks so much for your reply. I will continue studying on your channel to develop my info. Best wishes

i work in the ulster hospital cssd 20 years 21 soon get the pension in 25 years lol.....
