From the Trades to the Hospital: Inside Hospital Engineering Careers

Healthcare facilities rely on skilled engineers, and some of the best come from the trades. In this episode of Healthcare Facilities Network, we sit down with three engineers who started their careers in landscaping, residential HVAC, remodeling, and hotel maintenance and made the transition into hospital engineering.

They share the learning curves, growth opportunities, and key differences they’ve experienced moving from other trades into healthcare. From adapting hands-on skills to hospital systems to understanding clinical priorities, this is our first episode featuring trades engineers, and it’s packed with insights you won’t hear anywhere else.

Whether you’re a trades professional exploring healthcare or a facilities leader looking to build a stronger team, this conversation highlights how practical experience and trades skills translate into success in hospital engineering.
