The future of sterilisation and decontamination

The Central Sterilising Club Annual Scientific Meeting provided an excellent learning opportunity for all those involved in decontamination. With a focus on extending knowledge and improving practice, this year’s event was yet another success.

The Central Sterilising Club (CSC) holds two educational events every year, both being accredited for continuing professional development (CPD), which is currently organised through the Royal College and Pathologist’s scheme. The programme is submitted for review and an appropriate number of CPD points allocated to the content. 

The first of the CSC events is a two-day Annual Scientific Meeting which is held in the Spring and comprises a formal programme of lectures, from invited speakers, and a selected number of corporate presentations, which combine to cover a broad range of hot topics. It also includes The Kelsey Lecture which was established in 1980 through a donation made by Dr Jos Kelsey to enable a guest lecturer of international repute to be invited to speak at the conference.

CSC chair, Val O’Brien welcomed delegates to the Worsley Park Marriott Hotel & Country Club in Manchester and announced that, due to the success of the annual meeting, the 2020 event will take place at an even larger venue.
