Thank you to everyone who joined us for the NCASCA Spring Education Day. It was a great day of learning, connection, and meaningful discussions focused on supporting North Carolina’s ambulatory surgery centers.

Attendees gained valuable insights across several key areas impacting ASC operations:

• Sterile Processing & Survey Readiness
  Pamela Carter delivered a highly informative session on how sterile processing departments are evaluated during surveys, highlighting common findings, documentation expectations, and practical steps to stay compliant and prepared.
• Regulatory Updates: State & Federal
  Melanie Bush provided important updates on current regulatory topics affecting North Carolina ASCs, including survey trends, compliance priorities, and key changes influencing day-to-day operations.
• Supply Chain Best Practices
  Katie McDermott shared actionable strategies to improve supply chain efficiency, manage costs, and support long-term operational sustainability within the ASC setting.

Beyond the sessions, the day offered valuable time for networking and connecting with peers who understand the unique challenges and opportunities within the ASC community.
