"I have worked with many patients during my career as a biomedical technician. Being around patients is a part of the job that I am 100% comfortable with. I want the patient to be completely comfortable with non-medical staff in their room as well. Patients often ask questions about my work, and I am happy to answer them."

The interviewer wants to know of any experience you may have interacted with patients. As a biomedical technician, you may be called into a patients room to troubleshoot a piece of equipment. Are you confident in explaining the concern or explaining how something works when a patient is present? Let the interviewer know that you are comfortable being around patients.

"There have been times that I've needed to go to a patient room to assess a piece of equipment. I engage in small talk only if the patient initiates it. I keep it professional and light-hearted."
