Training ROI and Continuing Education in Cardiac Medical Devices

PrepMD Mock Cath Lab Training

The learning curve is steep in the cardiac medical device space with effective training programs a necessity. Innovation and advancements in medical devices is constant. The professionals working in the cardiac medical device space rely on  clinical and corporate training solutions to ensure proficiency and safe patient outcomes.

Collaboration: Improving Training ROI

Medical device companies and cardiac clinical staff realize a higher return on their investment by embedding employee input and collaboration in the process. To ensure best outcomes and return on training investment, a customized training solution should include thoughtful input from all levels and include training needs assessment to ensure efficacy. Employers who invest in this collaborative approach to a well-trained staff will see better technical and clinical results along with higher morale and job satisfaction.

Clinical Competence: Higher Standard of Care

Any cardiac clinic nurse manager asked will have much to say about the common clinic challenges of an undertrained device clinic staff and continuing education requirements. The cardiac device space is complex with fast changing technologies and products. Hospitals and clinics rely on PrepMD for a variety of our services, including healthcare training, clinic staffing, and remote monitoring services. While there are many positive training outcomes, the priority at PrepMD is to help our clients have more competent staff better equipped to provide a higher standard of performance and patient care.

Building Competent Teams to keep up with Innovation

Nowhere is the importance of clinical and technical competence more apparent than in cardiology and the medical device industry, where new products and innovative therapies are constant!  Effective recruitment and retention of a talented team is expensive and time-consuming, and critical to successful patient outcomes. Training is an essential ingredient to building and keeping competent teams who have not only the clinical acumen but also the motivation to keep abreast of the constant stream of new cardiovascular products and therapies.

The importance of Retention

Staff turnover may be one of the biggest pain points for any manager, but especially so in the cardiac space. The importance of new hires and initial training is obvious, but continuing education and coaching of the workforce is where management begins to reap the rewards of staff retention with a competent, satisfied, and well-trained staff. The one-and-done style training investment is not effective for this highly clinical and technical space. An effective training program, positive work culture, and low turnover help contribute to a positive reputation as an employer.
