Clinical Engineering is primarily concerned with providing medical device management services in terms of procurement, repair, calibration and maintenance to a wide range of diagnostic and therapeutic medical equipment. It is the responsibility of Clinical Engineering to ensure equipment operates effectively and safely with a minimum of downtime.
