WEBVTT 00:00.600 --> 00:03.809 A biomedical engineer , technician in 00:03.819 --> 00:06.300 general takes care of any medical 00:06.309 --> 00:09.369 equipment , whether it's dental and X 00:09.399 --> 00:11.232 ray equipment that anything that 00:11.232 --> 00:13.455 touches a patient , they install , they 00:13.455 --> 00:15.699 repair , they troubleshoot and they 00:15.710 --> 00:18.739 also calibrate uh and do preventative 00:18.750 --> 00:20.472 maintenance on them . For this 00:20.472 --> 00:22.694 particular mission . We did pretty much 00:22.694 --> 00:24.917 everything , a little bit of everything 00:24.917 --> 00:27.194 starting from X ray , anesthesia units , 00:27.194 --> 00:29.530 dental chairs , I mean , we were fixing 00:29.540 --> 00:31.262 and troubleshooting and fixing 00:31.262 --> 00:33.318 equipment and we found it broken and 00:33.400 --> 00:36.270 also we provided also training to the 00:36.279 --> 00:38.959 local biomed , they had to service like 00:38.970 --> 00:41.137 the ventilator unit . So in particular 00:41.137 --> 00:43.137 in cost , right , we , I mean , the 00:43.137 --> 00:45.303 facilities they are really old . So we 00:45.303 --> 00:47.414 have to go far and beyond that , what 00:47.414 --> 00:49.637 we are training for like working on the 00:49.637 --> 00:51.748 electrical , I mean , on the building 00:51.748 --> 00:53.748 electrical issues and also the five 00:53.748 --> 00:56.619 system . So even though we are trained 00:56.630 --> 00:58.741 to work on that , we are not supposed 00:58.741 --> 01:01.074 to touch those part . But here , I mean , 01:01.074 --> 01:03.241 we have to implement whatever whatever 01:03.241 --> 01:05.459 resources we have available . This is 01:05.470 --> 01:08.589 the only clinic on the island . And 01:08.970 --> 01:12.269 because of your team from us , we are 01:12.279 --> 01:14.980 now able to provide better access to 01:14.989 --> 01:18.190 the pe people and we can now see more 01:18.199 --> 01:21.209 patients because our chairs are fully 01:21.220 --> 01:24.559 equipped . Unlike before they come here , 01:25.069 --> 01:28.160 maybe we send them away because our 01:28.330 --> 01:30.720 equipments are not running properly . 01:30.949 --> 01:33.060 The experience has been challenging . 01:33.060 --> 01:35.769 Obviously , it's really hard for us to 01:35.790 --> 01:37.839 get in touch with the vendors and 01:37.849 --> 01:39.738 manufacturers because of the time 01:39.738 --> 01:42.029 difference being here . And but it 01:42.040 --> 01:44.151 wasn't big of a challenge because the 01:44.151 --> 01:46.345 people that we work with uh for the 01:46.355 --> 01:48.466 dentist provided that we worked at in 01:48.466 --> 01:50.688 this specific dental clinic was able to 01:50.688 --> 01:53.485 find um ways around to getting parts 01:53.495 --> 01:55.606 that we needed . Even though we had a 01:55.606 --> 01:57.773 small uh hardware store , we were able 01:57.773 --> 01:59.995 to get equipment and pretty much figure 01:59.995 --> 02:00.944 out how to get these things going .
