  • Conduct daily equipment checks to ensure proper function and calibration of radiation delivery systems.

  • Adhere to safety protocols to prevent radiation exposure to staff, patients, and others in the vicinity.

    • Patient Monitoring and Follow-up :

  • Monitor patients throughout the treatment process, observing for any signs of complications or reactions to the radiation therapy.
  • Take accurate measurements of patient responses and progress, ensuring that treatment is proceeding according to plan.
  • Record treatment data, including radiation doses, machine settings, and other relevant information in the patient’s medical record.
  • Provide follow-up instructions to patients, including guidelines for managing side effects and when to seek further medical care if necessary.

    • Documentation and Record Keeping :

  • Maintain accurate, up-to-date patient records, including treatment plans, progress notes, and details of each radiation session.
  • Ensure proper documentation of treatment sessions, radiation doses, and any adjustments made to the treatment plan.
  • Ensure compliance with regulatory requirements and hospital protocols for patient confidentiality and documentation.

    • Adherence to Safety Standards :

  • Follow strict radiation safety protocols to minimize exposure to patients, themselves, and other staff members.
  • Wear appropriate protective equipment, including dosimeters, to monitor radiation exposure.
  • Stay up-to-date on safety standards, ensuring compliance with both local regulations and industry best practices.
