The Guardians of Care

Keeping patients safe is the mission of every employee at NYU Langone Health. Thousands of experts work behind the scenes to ensure every surgical instrument is sterilized, every medical device is working properly, and every prescription filled is accurate.

Teams like the Central Sterile Processing Department work 24/7 every day of the year to ensure the safety, functionality and cleanliness of every medical instrument in the hospital. Colleagues in groups such as the pharmacy and clinical engineering teams approach their roles in much the same way—with a steadfast commitment that ensures every patient at NYU Langone receives the most meticulous care possible.
