Thanks for the introduction to BMET.
Thanks for taking the time to stamp my video!
@@BetterBiomedChannel Thank you for making the videos, they’ve been very helpful!
After watching this clip and above comment, I've setup a plan to get in depth of all the mentioned task. Thumbs up
This guy.... this youtube channel... is what the biomed world needed.
As a future biomed, you are a role model to my peers and I !!!
I'm a Telecomm tech seriously considering shifting careers as a Biomed tech. Thanks for this video!
Check with CBET.edu for guidance on your needed credentials
I used to be a Surveillance and Access Control technician. I joined the BMET gang and I'm in my second year.
@ALTONBENALLY Sweet! I'm making arrangements to go back to school for Biomed Tech this Sept. Defintely looking forward to it. I drew the line with my career when the company decided not to let us be just techs anymore but made us salespeople as well. Now they want us to sell new services while we're on our service calls. The only realistic way a tech can meet the metrics is to solicit potential customers at his/her own time. Ridiculous.
Getting prepared to enter the bmet field. Thank you for sharing your experience
Thanks for your kind words Vincent!
Awesome video, thank you so much. I am just getting out of the military and this really enlightened me to what Biomed life maybe like. Thanks again
Worked as a Temp in the VA Health care system a Biomed helper. Could not get hired because I did not have any formal training or 2 year degree. Now enrolled in 2 year online Biomed technician degree. Its a good deal VA pays 100% tuition and
I get 900$ month for Housing pay. It is fast paced program at College of Biomedical Technology in San Antonio Texas. There is a lot of Job contacts around were is live in the Pitt. pa area like Phillips has always looking for entry level biomed techs and Xray engineers. Thank you for your channel I will try to keep up. Rick in Morgantown WV>
Which program did you choose? I chose CBET's Certificate course, and now I am considering taking its curriculum to the AAS degree.
Oh man I wish I had this video a year ago. Thank you so much!
Good job on showing the career field & just the tip of the iceberg!!!!😃👍
Jeremy Fielding is one of those motor people you should be following. Excellent break downs.
great advice for biomed students. Thanks!
Awesome video! I would also suggest brushing up on some IT stuff, basic computer and networking.
Thanks BBC! Looking at getting into the field coming from an electronics background.
Good advice. I used to do the same thing when I worked in AV as a stagehand.
Thank you so much for your work on making Biomeds better. I’m new to the field and have been practicing for 2 years now. I’m happy to find your channel today. Started with your video on X-force diathermy REM Calibration
Thanks for your support. I have >500 videos posted
Your video helped me solved the problem I had then. Thank you! 😊
Wrote all of this down and started studying and haven’t even started the college class yet 😊 Thankyou so much
Start asap and get used to electronics math. It’s cool overall through
Thankyou Sir, for your time, doing this video.
I just looove this video and your channel! I am soon starting in a job as a Med. Tech engineer at a hospital in Norway and I have a lot to learn! I was so grateful I found your channel some months ago, because there is a huge lack in videos covering the topics you do. Even though I notice quite some differences between healthcare in the US compared to Europe, what you share is still so valuable and needed. Thank you and keep up the good work!
Thanks for taking the time to write! Please stay in touch. I would love to know more about the European medical industry. Abetterbiomed@gmail.com
@@BetterBiomedChannel Thank you for your answer! Yes, that would be great, I'll try to contact you after I've gained a bit experience in the field and we can have a chat. I'm relatively fresh out of the university, and worked for 2 years with ICT systems towards emergency services.
@@annikairslinger4649 hii... are you working at norway?
Thank you so much for your explanation!!
Thank you very much sir! This is great! im biomedical engineer currently working in medical company going to shift to career in hospital. This video helped a lot. I’ll definitely come back to it again.
Thanks for writing!
A Very good explanation.
Great explanation and guidance
Thank you so much! I just recently discharged from the ARMY, and im looking at getting into biomed! I have electronics experience and im looking for a new career
Write me at abetterbiomed@gmail.com
@BetterBiomedChannel
Do you mind if I email you also? Army 11B re-classing to 68A. I’m starting soon and trying to prepare as much as possible.
Thank you
Thank you so much for spending your valuable time for making this video … its really informative … really appreciating your efforts to share informations
Thanks for taking the time to write me.
Thank you so much for this!
You are very welcome.
thank you for an informative video Sir. auto-subscribed!
Thanks for watching
Great advice!
Awesome video!
Definitely appreciate this video…
Nailed it!
I'm new to this idea of clinical engineering. I've been thinking about it for years but didn't know where to start. It's surprising to hear you kandid on the "common sense" questions you get and speak on. I found this Chanel by happenstance on one of my many rabbit hole journeys. 🕳 😆
Feel free to write me anytime if you have questions. Abetterbiomed@gmail.com
As a "not Biomed and outsider" , i also think that Safety is part of the job.
As a Biomed, you have not only to deal with different kinds of technologies like electronics, pneumatics, hydraulics etc, but also the hazards that come with each technology.
Like the risk of shock hazards when you are dealing with electrical devices, but also the risk of fluids under (high) pressure like in hydraulic devices, and those can also cause skin burns due the temperature of the fluid (oil, water etc). Devices that use high air pressure where a hose or reservoir can burst.
The weight of some devices (parts) , that can cause different kinds of damage to human and infrastructure.
The Biohazard risk, because you are in a environment where you can get punctured by sharp objects, can come in contact with different kinds of body fluids, gasses , chemicals etc....
Day 1 on the job I give junior biomeds the "everything's contaminated" speech.
@@BetterBiomedChannel , and everything is hot :-)
I want T shirt like yours! Merchandise gear pls asap! 3XL, waiting for price!👍
Hello, can assemble an online program to teach other Biomed how to be better Biomed professional? Or is there a program you can recommend for me to become a better Biomedical engineer? Thank you
Goodmorning! Thank you for your videos and as it’s very informative. I just finished 5 years as a calibration technician in the military and worked with all bunch of gear, new gear everyday. Mainly dealt with hydraulic, ac/dc, microwave and physical gear. Would my background be fit for this field since they are so similar? I’m a bit nervous to apply due to not being familiar with the medical side but very willing to learn!
Current BMET, Just Apply! Help is needed in the field . Plus military experience is always is great to see!!
@@rbrenn11 will do thank you for the confidence boost!
I’d say Heck yeah. Dang. I have ZERO background but retired military and want to get into it. I knew others same boat that were hired so I’d say you’re def good!
Do bmet straight out of school with an associate degree get paid more?
I was a biomed 1 after under a year i’ve been sent to steris/medivators for scope washer training and ASP training through arjo for sterrad now i feel like i wanna work just on those through steris. but i love my hospital love troubleshooting on everything but asp & medivators is my calling. I’m troubleshooting myself 😂
I'm always coming back to this video. It motivates me. 🤣
And always accidently when I'm too lazy to study, wish there were more audios online. Maybe a podcast 🤔
@@alexiscanet9009 We can do a video chat sometime if you have questions or if you need assistance. abetterbiomed@gmail.com
Need a challenge im a get into this
Always interested in the service /PPM schedule of ultrasound e.g. GE Logiq E9. Any chance of a video ? I assume most PPM is a clean & phantom check ?
Yes, clean, probe check, database clean from old patients or studies that didn't transmit to the digital medical record.
Also, backup the presets. I vacuum out the main board area as well. Keeps the machine from overheating by getting rid of the dust blanket.
Thank you! Aslo, there is a training course coming up at AAMI that is a CBET study course. They cover anatomy, electronics, troublshooting! Im so excited. Anyone who is interested, just Google AAMI. There will be so many resources including training and events! I start April 5th! Im SO EXCITED!
Hi will these courses be covered for free ?
@@ashp2182 obviously not
Just got job offer for Biomed Tech 1. I've been so stressed trying to find what I need to know. but this Video is awesome.
Stressed? Bah. Bmet1 isn't a high expectation job (no offense). It's a position of learning and everyone knows this
@@BetterBiomedChannel stressed may be the wrong word. I'm excited and i have a IT background. so I lack overall experience so the change to the mechanical side is out of my comfort zone. but I'm taking the advice and self educating.
I’m a senior biomed and instructor for over 20 years at a community college agree with you totally but you left out the patient experience and database structure.I have my students perform ekgs, stress test, nibp checks manually and with a monitor. My students build a database on access during the course starting the first day with inventory of over 100 items in my classroom.
The database is different at most facilities, and how it's used is even more varied.
Nice shirt, you should sell them.
Hello, I love you content. I wish you can assemble an online program to teach other Biomed how to be better Biomed professional Or is there a program you can recommend for me to become a better Biomedical engineer? Thank you
i would start with the Biomed Basics playlist
The training for biomedical technology is about 10k-30k in Texas .. the question .. is the pay , field , job openings worth it ? Does the school justify the industry.. your honest opinion
Compared to the cost of college?! Absolutely. As a graduate you'll usually start at ~$45k
@@BetterBiomedChannel appreciate your opinion !
Is there a lot of lifting in this field?
Not usually
Do you repair ct and other imagine device?
I have been trained on Philips CT years ago
@@BetterBiomedChannel It is scheduled to train in Brunker Belgium? Is it hard?
@@konstantinos-antoniosbme-m6472 hard? Not really but that's subjective to your technical abilities. It's an excellent opportunity
Hi sir. I'm opthalmic surgery machines service engineer. Is there any job opportunities available in abroad. What are the course available to build my career.
I know of a few biomeds that started off repairing things other than medical equipment and they are biomeds today.
I build laser for a living and can’t seem to land a BMET position
I would first check with all companies which service lasers. Google maps. Research laser repair or medical lasers. Create a list of all companies with those names and reach out to them through LinkedIn.
You need to be strategic
How for entry level Bmet 1 just fresh gratitude they asking for experience?? Lol
I recorded a video today of me helping someone else who wants to get into biomed. I'll post tomorrow.
Bro, what is Biomed level I, II,III in US?
Bmet1 is entry level, 2 is a generally self sufficient biomed and 3 is a senior level biomed. From there, there might be biomed specialist / bmet 4 / bmet team leader and then there is Biomed manager.
@@BetterBiomedChannel who will give you the ranks?
@@konstantinos-antoniosbme-m6472 Your time in career, experience, resume and trainability will determine hour Biomed level
@@BetterBiomedChannel Oh! MSc, PhD etc are included in determination of the Biomed level? Here in Greece, Biomedical engineer or Bmet are confused with electricians or electronical engineer guys 🤣🤣🤣🤣 They know nothing about anatomy, physiology,biomicrology and radiology and delicate handlings... Hammer 🔨 and screwdriver only 🤣🤣🤣
@@konstantinos-antoniosbme-m6472 sure you can get a job as a biomed with simple mechanical knowledge but you won't be competitive for many positions
