RADIATION SAFETY OFFICER SERVICES

• Do RSO duties interfere with the primary duties of one of your staff members?
   
• Are you using good radiation safety procedures in compliance with the ALARA principle (radiation dose is As Low As Reasonably Achievable)?
   
• Are your licenses, registrations, and safety training programs up to date?
   
• Could your RSO use an assistant?

RSO Services is your resource for a complete line of radiation safety services.  We can assist your existing RSO on a temporary or permanent basis, part-time or full-time.  If the person who serves as your RSO has a different primary role, our service can free up that person to perform his/her primary job function.

With this service CURE Institute of Health Physics administers the radiation safety and badging program at your facility.  You save time and money by utilizing a professional with technical credentials and substantial experience to manage your RSO duties efficiently and resolve radiation safety issues expeditiously.
