dc.description.abstract |
Biomedical engineers and technicians are of such shortage in Uganda that large quantities of equipment lay unused, presumed non-working or unusable. However, with fully trained medical engineers / technicians, a large percentage of this equipment could be made working. By working with Kyambogo University, Amalthea Trust has developed a BMET training Diploma that will allow the University to train biomedical technicians capable of implementing a full equipment management service on the country's medical equipment.
