— COURSE DESCRIPTION
Radiation Safety
Healthcare workers face potential radiation exposure from multiple sources throughout clinical settings. Radiation is used therapeutically to treat diseases like cancer through external beam radiation therapy and brachytherapy, diagnostically through X-rays, CT scans, fluoroscopy, and mammography, and in nuclear medicine procedures using radioactive isotopes for imaging and treatment. Additional radiation sources exist in laboratory environments, pharmaceutical compounding areas, and research facilities. Despite widespread use of radiation in modern healthcare, many workers lack adequate understanding of radiation hazards, protective measures, and exposure monitoring requirements.
This course informs healthcare workers on the sources and hazards of radiation in the workplace and provides essential safe work practices for radiation protection. Employees learn to define ionizing and non-ionizing radiation, identify radiation sources found in healthcare settings, understand the biological effects of radiation exposure including deterministic and stochastic effects, apply the ALARA principle (As Low As Reasonably Achievable), and implement the three fundamental protection methods: time, distance, and shielding.
