MHCSMA has been serving its central service members and the Minnesota healthcare community with pride for many years. Our members convene with great pleasure and enthusiasm to share their knowledge and expertise regarding sterile processing practice. Our community consists of many patient care professionals from local healthcare facilities and the vendors that support and provide for the many healthcare facilities of Minnesota.

It is this knowledge base that allows our organization to continually progress and develop education for central service members and institute the necessary changes we constantly face in the healthcare arena.  As an organization we look forward to our continued growth within the community and would like to invite everyone to share in this experience.

Welcome to MHCSMA
Our Service is Central to Patient Care
