Abstract
A new video developed by AAMI's Technology Management Council (TMC) promoting biomedical careers is now available at AAMI's student website at www.aami.org/student.The video features TMC leaders Dave Francoeur and Ken Maddock discussing the benefits and opportunities of the biomed profession.“When you check in to a hospital as a patient, you probably take for granted that the medical equipment that surrounds you will work properly,” says Maddock, vice president of clinical engineering and telecommunications services at Baylor Health Care System in Texas. “But most people don't realize that there are skilled professionals responsible for ensuring that the technology performs safely and effectively.”The video has been praised by many in the profession as a valuable recruitment tool that also sends a good message about the profession. “It may be the most positive statement about biomedical engineering that I have ever seen in over 45 years,” says Frank Magnarelli, an independent biotechnology professional.
