The Government requires Biomedical Equipment Technician service for this contract at the established facilities at the 48th Medical Group, RAF Lakenheath, England, also referred to as the “Medical Treatment Facility” (MTF) herein. Performance shall be in accordance with the requirements contained in this Performance Work Statement (PWS), and standards of the Joint Commission and Health Services Inspection (HSI).

1.2 SCOPE

This position will serve as a biomedical equipment technician providing operations support at the Medical Equipment Repair Section. The duties are to repair, calibrate, and maintain medical equipment used in the healthcare field with minimal supervision from service management and to perform required duties which may include the maintenance of documentation systems and reporting of information essential to facility medical equipment maintenance reporting systems.

Additional responsibilities include inspection and installation of medical equipment in medical facilities for use by physicians, nurses, scientists, or engineers involved in researching, monitoring, diagnosing, and treating physical ailments or dysfunctions.

1.3 SPECIFIC SUPPORT SERVICES

Performs a variety of duties in support of assigned medical equipment. This equipment is typically designed and constructed to meet specific hospital needs rather than designed for general-purpose use that can vary depending upon the system integration required. The equipment may be used as standalone or as a component of a complex electronic system, with the latter requiring consideration of the larger system and its network when performing assigned duties. Equipment is well documented in terms of manufacturer's literature to include schematic diagrams, maintenance schedules, troubleshooting procedures, etc. Examples of such equipment include, but are not limited to: sterilizers, dental delivery systems, defibrillators, ventilators, infusion pumps, and other individual components of larger systems (e.g., electrocardiographs, anesthesia systems, and blood pressure monitoring equipment as individual components of a physical monitoring system). Requires knowledge and technical understanding of and ability to interpret and relate federal, state, local, professional agencies' standards, regulatory requirements to biomedical equipment and its respective Environment of Care (EOC), since majority of work is performed "on the floor" rather than at the bench. Requires an in-depth understanding and ability to diagnose problems with the quality of images and signals as required by medical professionals based on the equipment, network (with assist from senior technicians), and medical procedure being performed and understand the physiological parameters associated with a patient when diagnosing and troubleshooting medical equipment and systems. Certification by the American Association of Medical Instrumentation (AAMI) or as a Veterans Administration Biomedical Equipment Technician is desirable.

1.3.1 Performs maintenance, testing, repair and operation duties, in accordance with (IAW) organizational and original equipment manufacturer (OEM) literature and guidance.

Applies a knowledge of physiology, anatomy, electronic theory, design characteristics, operation and system functions of the medical equipment; a knowledge of clinical procedures and various EOC requirements; and requires the ability to deal effectively with patients and members of the medical team. The work performed primarily involves on-site work and standing, bending, and working in cramped and awkward positions.

Incumbent must constantly follow safe work practices and procedures, particularly while lifting, carrying tools, maintaining equipment, etc. Incumbent works in all patient care areas in the medical treatment facility. Work in hazardous environments where hazardous energy control (stored or in use) is required. Risks such as electrical, thermal, chemical, kinetic (mechanical), pneumatic, radiation, and biological are prevalent in the workplace and will result in phyiscalphysical injury if precautions are not taken.”

Circuitry typically includes either simulated or actual patient hook-up during the procedure and consideration of factors (e.g., dirty power, microwave use, etc.) in the EOC. Based on inspections, determines need and/or extent of repair work. Troubleshoots equipment and diagnoses defects using special-purpose test equipment such as invasive and non-invasive radiographic/ fluoroscopic energy devices, electrical leakage current testers, defibrillator analyzers, infusion pump tester and ventilator tester. Isolates cause of intermittent defects and takes corrective action based on previously programmed steps, or application of standard techniques to ensure operational safety. Provides technical assistance to users on the operations and functions of medical equipment, considering the clinical procedure.
