Abstract
A critical shortage of qualified central processing technicians and the opening of a new central processing department (CPD) were driving forces behind the development of a CPD technician internship program at one facility. Classes focused on the principles and practices of central processing, and an OR observation gave interns the opportunity to see the impact that the work of the CPD has on OR function and patient care and safety. Program evaluations have been positive, and staff vacancies have been filled with the graduates of the internship program.
