Visit to VUMC Clinical Engineering facility

Yesterday, we traveled to the VUMC Clinical Engineering facility. We met with Mr. Rick Clark, a clinical engineering specialist, and learned about common problems with medical equipment and ways to go about fixing them. For example, one of the key pieces of advice for when a device is not powering up, was to always start with the power source and work inward.


Here is a photo of us on our way to the VUMC, taken by Dr. Paschal. We are holding up our t-shirts that we will be wearing on Saturday!
