Radiation Safety Training

General Radiation Safety course located at: https://hscmoodle.health.unm.edu is required of all employees who receive, or might receive, an occupational exposure while working in or near a controlled area. These individuals may routinely enter the controlled area and encounter postings, radiation producing devices or radioactive materials. Employee responsibilities for observing and obeying radiation safety postings and procedures are emphasized throughout this training.

Additional training beyond General Radiation Safety required for all employees who are identified as radiological workers. Every employee, both radiological workers and non-radiological workers, must play an active role in maintaining exposures to radiation and radioactive materials within regulatory (Nuclear Regulatory Commission or Agreement State) limits and in compliance with As Low As Reasonably Achievable (ALARA) principles.

Trained individuals should be able to place the risks associated with working with, or near radiation and/or radioactive materials in perspective with other risks encountered in everyday life.

The participant will be able to IDENTIFY:

:: Basic radiological fundamentals and radiation protection concepts.
:: The relative risks of exposure to radiation and radioactive materials, including prenatal radiation exposure.
:: Individual rights and responsibilities as related to implementation of the radiation protection program (including the ALARA Program).
:: Actions implemented to control doses under emergency conditions.
:: Exposure reports or other exposure data which may be provided and how to request these reports
