In early February, members of the two teams that make up SpecialtyCare’s biomedical department convened at the Airpark Technical Center in Nashville for a week of meetings and interaction, examining procedures and protocols, and working together on the maintenance of complex medical equipment.
It was part of a planned series of biannual get-togethers that foster the team concept, allowing SpecialtyCare’s four IONM techs and eight perfusion techs to develop relationships, not just with one another but with members from other SpecialtyCare departments, like the finance team, who came over for lunch on one of the days.
“Everything that we touch and maintain, the finance team is responsible for paying,” said Andrew Goldstein, Manager, Biomedical Engineering at SpecialtyCare. “We brought them in so that everyone could put faces to names. That way, they’re more than just an email address or a voice on the phone.”
