Their primary role is to ensure the proper cleaning, sterilization, and preparation of surgical instruments and medical equipment in healthcare facilities. They are 'on call,' meaning they may be called in to work during emergencies, staff shortages, or high-demand periods. This role requires flexibility, attention to detail, and a strong understanding of infection control protocols.
