In addition to being essential for safe and effective patient care,
medical equipment also has significant impact on the income and,
thus, vitality of healthcare organizations. For this reason, its
maintenance and management requires careful supervision by
healthcare administrators, many of whom may not have the technical
background to understand all of the relevant factors. This book
presents the basic elements of medical equipment maintenance and
management required of healthcare leaders responsible for managing
or overseeing this function. It will enable these individuals to
understand their professional responsibilities, as well as what
they should expect from their supervised staff and how to measure
and benchmark staff performance against equivalent performance
levels at similar organizations. The book opens with a foundational
summary of the laws, regulations, codes, and standards that are
applicable to the maintenance and management of medical equipment
in healthcare organizations. Next, the core functions of the team
responsible for maintenance and management are described in
sufficient detail for managers and overseers. Then the methods and
measures for determining the effectiveness and efficiency of
equipment maintenance and management are presented to allow
performance management and benchmarking comparisons. The challenges
and opportunities of managing healthcare organizations of different
sizes, acuity levels, and geographical locations are discussed.
Extensive bibliographic sources and material for further study are
provided to assist students and healthcare leaders interested in
acquiring more detailed knowledge. Table of Contents: Introduction
