Technologies such as laser and intense pulsed light (IPL) will always carry inherent risks such as eye injury or skin burns; as a result it is important that operators, owners and associated staff and support personnel, have a minimum level of expertise and education in regard to the hazards and safeguards associated with their use in order to protect their clients, staff and themselves against inadvertent exposure and possible injury as well as minimize risk of litigation.
The AKISS Laser and IPL safety training course is accredited by Queensland Health (ED151) and is one of the requirements needed before anyone can purchase, use or maintain a Laser system in Queensland. This one day course covers topics such as:
- Laser and its properties
- Biological Effects
- Laser Hazards
- Laser Equipment and delivery systems
- Laser Safety Administrative requirements
- LSO Responsibilities
- Acceptance, Quality Assurance Testing & Preventative maintenance
- Laser safe practices
This will equip attendees with the information required to ensure a high level of safety can be maintained within facilities carrying out laser and IPL treatments.
