CHIROPRACTORS
As Chiropractors, you may use ionising radiation associated with the use of x-ray machines.
Although you will no doubt understand and be aware of the risks involved in using your particular apparatus or procedures, there is a significant amount of complex legislation surrounding the use of ionising and non-ionising radiations that you may not be fully aware of.
Your Practice has to ensure that it complies with this legislation if it wishes to avoid potential prosecution, and if you are to keep your staff, patients and visitors safe.
The ‘advice’ sections of the website gives some pointers to the key features of this legislation and how it may be complied with.
The appointment of a suitable Radiation Protection Adviser is one of the necessary steps you must take.
Graham has experience in designing x-ray facilities and liasing with architects, as well as routine radiological protection.
