🧼 Sterilization Services for Foot Care Nurses
Longevity Services proudly offers professional autoclave sterilization for foot care nurses who want to uphold high clinical standards without investing in their own equipment. Whether you’re just starting out or not ready to invest in an autoclave, we’re here to help you stay compliant and confident.
⚠️ Why It Matters
Foot care instruments—including podiatry and nursing tools—are classified as critical devices and require steam sterilization. This means disinfection alone is not enough.
We use a high-quality medical-grade autoclave and run biological indicators daily, along with chemical and mechanical indicators for every single load. Our processes meet all provincial and national sterilization standards.
đź’˛ Pricing
- $32 per load – for a single load
- $30 per load – when submitting multiple loads
Examples of a full load:
- 12 instrument packs (5x11 inch size)

- $16 per Enbio Load – includes up to 6 medium-sized pouches or a full load of burs (up to 30)
📦 Equipment Submission Guidelines
To ensure we can sterilize your instruments safely and efficiently, please:
