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.
What if your organization could work with an on-site team of clinical engineering technicians who are trained to adapt to the evolving needs of medical equipment maintenance? What if this in-depth training could support your goal of persistent operational savings? With TRIMEDX, your health system and the technicians you rely on see the benefits of ongoing technical and leadership training programs. From specialists in device repair and maintenance to capital planning to cybersecurity, each associate is trained, knowledgeable, and reliable in their field.

3 strategies to drive BMET engagement and success in your health system
To keep medical equipment inventories running reliably, BMETs need the resources and support to efficiently manage their time & attention. Yet a shrinking talent pipeline, increasing administrative workloads, and rapidly evolving technology risks are putting more strain than ever on clinical engineering teams. Health systems need to shift the perception of medical device maintenance from a cost center to a strategic lever for enhancing organizational efficiency. By allocating the right support resources for BMETs, health systems can achieve better equipment uptime, improve staffing levels, and respond faster to patient safety risks.

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.
