What National Societies Should Do to Increase Capacity of Global CEs Professional Development
Despite the growing needs from hospitals for activities such as risk control,cost management,quality control and digital communication,most clinical engineers are not aware or do not risk to be responsible for these tasks.Unfortunately,the majority of CEs do not defy the comfortable state but keep claiming the lack of support from administration.Up to now,the Body of Practices as well as the Body of Knowledge for Clinical Engineering is not a world consensus.Hence,Clinical Engineering Societies must start to discuss how to change this situation; how to improve the interaction not only among clinical engineers but with the health staff and discuss how to help clinical engineers to present themselves as problem solvers regarding medical equipment technologies.Ultimately,the Clinical Engineering Societies must start a regional movement to define what is the Clinical Engineering model that best suits the need of the health system and communicate the academy about their findings.Here it is discussed some initiatives to be adopted by regional clinical engineering societies to promote the profession.
