As part of the activities of dissemination and enhancement of RUMED, the Brazilian nursing group specialised in sterilization, NasceCME, promoted during the last semester of the year 2020 the 1st Award to the Project focused on the environmentalist theory of Florence Nigthingale and its relation with the Reprocessing Units of Medical Devices. This first edition was promoted in Portuguese, English and Spanish.
The papers were reviewed by 7 judges linked to the RUMED framework with a high level of knowledge and reputation in all areas.
The chosen topics were: the FIFO method in RUMED; the experience of a RUMED in a nursing home and the COVID-19 pandemic; surgical instrumentation and the setting up of cases; traceability in RUMED; management of activities in RUMED; the implementation of a class I Sterilization Unit in an outpatient clinic specialized in disabled persons, the Sterilization Central and the environmental theory of Florence Nightingale, which was the work deserving of this first prize.
From MATACHANA, we are very proud to have sponsored this first edition, with the sending of 3 books on “STERILIZATION of Medical Supplies by Steam”, which were handed over to the three winning projects.
We would especially like to thank nurse Ana Miranda and the NasceCME group for their commitment to the scientific activities of RUMED, both in Brazil and internationally, as well as the visibility they are achieving with all their educational actions, revaluing the fundamental work developed by our reprocessing units in the Healthcare sector.
