U.S. Naval Hospital (USNH) Okinawa leadership pose for a picture with the team who led the first-ever Asia-Pacific High-Level Sterilization Course at the hospital. Traditionally held on the U.S. East Coast, this specialized training was made available to forward-deployed medical professionals by the military treatment facility, eliminating barriers such as funding constraints, time zone differences, and limited access to sterilization resources. From left to right, USNH Okinawa Deputy Director Capt. James Demitrack; USNH Okinawa Director Capt. Kathleen Cooperman; Annie Watts, senior manager of clinical education from Steris, a company that specializes in infection prevention; Brittany Hernandez, from the hospital's infection control team; and Cmdr. Catherine Soteras, the hospital's department head for the main operating room and sterile processing department.
