Surgical & Medical Scrub Sinks by STERIS

Usage guidelines for scrub sinks may differ across healthcare facilities and systems. It's advised to adhere to facility-established policies and procedures, or consult AORN guidelines for further direction on scrub sink operation and use. A thermostatic mixing valve should maintain water temperature to avoid fluctuations and reduce burn risk.

• Water Control: Scrub sinks offer hand-operated or hands-free water controls, such as knee panels, foot pumps, or infrared sensors
• Timed Hygiene: A digital timer ensures adequate hand washing duration before entering the OR
• Soap Dispensation: A proper dose of surgical scrub chemistry is crucial when choosing a scrub sink
• Faucet Functionality: The faucet is vital for delivering water during the hand scrubbing process
• Station Capacity: Scrub sinks can have one to three stations, allowing multiple OR staff members to wash their hands simultaneously
