One of the 4 radiation checks in Compliance UK's dental pack, with the fields to record, who usually does it and where it sits in the CQC framework.
What this check is
There's no schedule for this one. It's recorded each time it happens. The radiation protection supervisor usually does it.
The record is a document or certificate, added as a file or a photo.
It only applies to practices that answer yes to “Do you take intraoral X-rays?” when they set up Compliance UK.
