The Irish Association of Sterile Services Managers was established in 1989.

It continues to fullfil this aim by spearheading a revolution in sterilization thought the organizing of conferences, study days, and the dissemination of information in decontamination and sterilization. Currently, it has representation on the board of the European Forum for Hospital Sterile Supply (EFHSS) and the World Federation and was the founder member of the EFHSS (www.efhss.com).

The IASSM has been acknowledged nationally and internationally as a leading organization associated with decontamination and sterilization. Nationally, the IASSM continues to promote education in decontamination and sterilization thought it's involvement with the Institute of Technology, Tallaght course set up in 2000. Internationally, in 2002 the IASSM was given the honor of hosting the EFHSS Conference 2002 which was attended by over 300 delegates world wide, and proved to be a great success.
