CLINICAL ENGINEERING TECHNICIAN TRAINING & DEVELOPMENT

Investing in Your Clinical Engineering Team

Clinical engineering technicians are the heart of medical device maintenance and optimization. Their skills and knowledge have an immense impact on the daily clinical operations of any health system. A well-staffed and trained clinical engineering program is an absolute priority, but a growing shortage of new technicians and increasingly technical complexity have created enormous pressure for health systems.

4 STRATEGIES FOR ANTICIPATING MEDICAL DEVICE NEEDS TO PROTECT YOUR HEALTH SYSTEM AND PATIENTS

The relationship between health systems and medical equipment can be complicated. The modern standard of care leans heavily on technology to aid diagnostics and treatment. But the cost of advancing care is substantial. In addition to the cost of purchasing equipment, health systems must invest in maintaining these highly technical devices. While the breadth of these demands may seem daunting, standardizing a proactive approach to technical maintenance, supply chain management, regulatory compliance, and cybersecurity can remove many uncertainties from modern care delivery and yield a greater return on a health system’s investments.

AAMI BMET Apprenticeship program
sponsored by TRIMEDX

TRIMEDX invests in the next generation of clinical engineering talent through a BMET apprenticeship program, launched in 2022 in partnership with the Association for the Advancement of Medical Instrumentation (AAMI). AAMI’s BMET Apprenticeship is recognized by the U.S. Department of Labor and combines traditional education with up to 6,000 hours of on-the-job learning. Apprentices work for 24 months with an expert team of TRIMEDX clinical engineering technicians, gaining valuable on-the-job training and experience. Participants also have extensive education requirements including anatomy, medical terminology, physiology, and other related courses. The cost of these collegiate-level courses is covered by TRIMEDX, and the program provides a pathway to a career in clinical engineering for people who have little to no experience or non-traditional backgrounds. The goal is to create a long-term career trajectory for the apprentices and ensure they are eligible for an advanced clinical engineering technician position by the time they finish the two-year program. 

Partnerships That Build Associate Skills

TRIMEDX associates have access to the industry’s leading skills-building program and deliver the value of these trainings to our health system partners.
