Radiation Orientation and Safe Work Practices
Radiation Orientation and Safe Work Practices
OSHA
In 2012, The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) proposed the Federal Guidance for diagnostic and interventional x-ray equipment. If your work environment utilizes radiation in any form, your staff will benefit from understanding and preventing the short and long-term exposure issues associated with radiation.
Radiation safety is required by law and managers and employees must manage all radiation material, transmission equipment and waste according to federal and state regulations. This course will cover regulations and safety requirements for imaging standards for ionizing radiation, radioactive materials, and the use of radiograph equipment. You will also become familiar with definitions and be provided a general orientation to the use of radioactive materials and radiation producing devices
