Together Everyone Achieves More
Sometimes it feels like “teamwork” has been a buzz word forever. Teamwork related motivational quotes grace the walls of businesses, schools, and even healthcare facilities. Whether you embrace teamwork or are fed up with all the hype, the reality is that a cohesive group of people, with each member contributing to a specific task can, and does, accomplish amazing things.
Take an operating room team for example. For routine surgery there are between 6 and 10 medical personnel scrubbed and performing specific roles. The team includes the Surgeon, Anesthesiologist, Nurse Anesthetist, 2-4 Scrub Techs, Circulating Tech, Nurse(s), and in some cases medical students. Then there are the mind-boggling surgical feats of medical science, the separation of conjoined twins for example, that require a surgical team of more than thirty. These teams of doctors, nurses, and OR staff ensure the best possible outcome for patients by performing their individual roles while, at the same time, working together.
Team CME
Outside operating rooms teamwork is just as vital to medical equipment distributors providing the healthcare industry with access to the capital medical equipment needed to ensure patient satisfaction.
CME’s Mike Malec was recently awarded Distribution Representative of the Year by Repertoire Magazine. In his acceptance Mike was clear that his success does not come from functioning alone. A 34-year veteran of medical sales, Mike expressed his thanks to everyone who nominated and voted for him, particularly the manufacturing community, noting that distribution account managers are nothing without their manufacturing partners. He was also quick to point out that he considers the award a team award and named CME's Customer Service, Project Management, Direct-to-Site, and Warehouse teams in his Illinois and Wisconsin territory as critical to his success.
Normand Chevrette, CME Corp President, and CEO, took teamwork one step further in his congratulations saying, “I know that being as successful as Mike has been, is a real family team effort.”
Teams drive the logistics, assembly, and installation services that distinguish CME from other medical equipment distributors. And, as Mike pointed out, CME Sales Teams are undergirded by multiple behind the scenes teams that make it possible for hospitals, clinics, and long-term care facilities to focus on patient well-being rather than the business of procuring medical equipment.
There are a lot of moving parts at CME working seamlessly together to equip the healthcare facilities Americans have come to rely on with capital medical equipment, furniture, and biomedical services. These parts will only continue to move with individual people functioning together as one.
CME is currently looking for
- Direct-to-Site personnel to support our flagship logistics service.
- Sales Representatives to build relationships with
- Hospitals/IDNs,
- Ambulatory Surgery Centers,
- Clinics, Long-Term Care Centers,
- Rehabilitation Centers,
- Government Facilities, and
- Emergency Medical Services.
- Biomedical Equipment Technicians to keep sensitive medical equipment calibrated and in first-class working order.
