It cannot be coherently argued that the end point of what medical engineering technologists do does not revolve around the safety of the patient. So what is the argument?
In that case should the people who install/maintain the automatic doors or parking barriers at the entrance to the hospital, or those who lay the paving slabs or tarmac also be regulated as if either of these things are done incorrectly they can also injure patients? - Where's it all going to end.....?!
We're all doomed (or incompetent it would seem) without the yearly certificate. DOOMED I TELL YOU!!
I'm afraid ipem/vrct will have to manage without my £10 this year...
