— COURSE DESCRIPTION

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.

— CERTIFICATE & COMPLIANCE

Audit ready with course certificates

Upon successful completion, learners receive an official certificate of completion documenting their radiation safety training for NRC compliance records, state radiation control programs, and facility safety programs.

The course includes assessments that verify understanding of radiation sources, biological effects of exposure, dose limits, and the three fundamental protection methods. Certificates are generated immediately and can be downloaded or printed for employee files and compliance documentation.

Supports Compliance With:

Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) 10 CFR Part 20 (Standards for Protection Against Radiation)
NRC 10 CFR Part 19 (Notices, Instructions and Reports to Workers)
State radiation control programs (Agreement States)
ALARA principle requirements
Occupational dose monitoring requirements
Joint Commission radiation safety standards
ACR (American College of Radiology) practice parameters
