EBME Forums Forums Management Professional Issues The Alliance for Patient Safety

I know of two times that patient safety has been put at risk from trained 'engineers', in the same hospital.
Just because it was not reported is not evidence that it is not happening.

I also know of companies employing 'engineers' with no electronics qualifications, paying minimum wage and letting them loose on medical equipment.
You have your pay gateways in the NHS is this not a way of proving competence?
