Medical Devices Training for Clinical Staff |

Written by Clinical Risk Manager
|
This policy will ensure that there is a process whereby all permanent clinical staff are trained to safely use diagnostic and therapeutic equipment appropriate to their role. Clinical staff includes Doctors, Nurses, Midwives and all Allied Health Professionals. It is recognised that the use of medical devices and equipment may be delegated to a Health Care Assistant or other associated support staff, but the registered professional remains accountable at all times for ensuring the competence of individuals and that delegation is appropriate and safe.
