To add some numbers to the answers...

I have 1059 assets on the asset register which I'm responsible for, this includes 4 theatres' equipent (cardiac incl), 3 ITU's (mainly monitoring and ventilators) and over 250 infusion devices. With the current set-up which we've optimised over and over again it seems we are still 30%-40% short on human resources.

Rule of thumb in our case is at least one engineer per site and probably no more than 800 assets(depending on quantities of type) per engineer. laugh
