... unless you can provide a credible solution.
How about:- "getting back to basics"?
Here's as good a way as any I know of:- draw up an accurate list of every bit of kit within your domain (or, if you are a manager, delegate the task to one of the
oiks, if that is your way of getting things done).
Then (against each type) ask yourself the question:- how do I support and maintain that piece of equipment?
Hint:- you should have a firm, and credible, answer (or, if you like, "plan") for each and every type of equipment.
Futhermore, the actual job is keeping fit equipment in the hands of the clinical user. Everything else is a diversion (at best) or a waste of time and money (at worst).
My own pet hates include "stool pigeons" in the workshop(s) and "suits" in the offices (and meeting rooms). We are - or should be - proactive, practical (and dare I say it?),
caring folk.
