Introduction

The Hong Kong Sterile Services Management Association Ltd. was founded in March 1997 by a group of enthusiastic nursing staff working in Central Sterile Supply Departments in Hong Kong. Our major objective is to promote and provide training and development for the enhancement of the professional knowledge and management skill in the field of decontamination services for our members. Lectures, exhibitions, educational meetings and sterile service management certificate courses had been organized for our members in the past years. In addition, we are the founder member of The International Federation for Sterile Supply (IFSS).
