The Supportability of Medical Devices in Canada

The Supportability of Medical Devices in Canada

This Webinar on the Supportability of Medical Devices is must for all clinical engineering professionals in Canada. It will be a town hall like session bringing the issue of supportability out of the closet and openly discussed from across the country. Responses from this year’s survey on supportability will be reviewed. They convey specific outlooks on support from our own hospitals, vendor barriers, forecasting the future trend, group purchasing organizations, and the quality and availability of training and information to service medical devices. Proposed mitigation strategies will be tabled and discussed. Of course, we look to you, our membership (and non-members) for guidance and support for these endeavors.
