What is the typical safety training required for students?

Radiography students need a safety program that covers protecting people from radiation, preventing the spread of infections, safeguarding patient information, and following workplace regulations. Radiation safety training teaches how to minimize exposure for both patients and staff, use shielding and proper positioning, monitor dose, and apply the ALARA principle. Infection control and bloodborne pathogens training covers standard precautions, hand hygiene, disinfection and sterilization, PPE use, and safe handling of sharps and bodily fluids to prevent disease transmission. HIPAA training ensures students understand patient privacy, how to handle protected health information, and the correct ways to disclose or access records. OSHA-related training (as required by policy) provides the basics of general workplace safety, equipment safety, chemical and electrical safety, and emergency procedures. This combination addresses the full scope of safety responsibilities during clinical rotations, going beyond just fire safety, PPE alone, or pharmacology, which are narrower aspects of safety.
