INTEGRATIVE PRACTICES
Laser Safety
Medical Laser Safety Officer
We support specialty practices where laser technology is becoming increasingly prevalent in integrative medicine and chiropractic practices.
Our online program offers a laser safety course that helps clinics prepare and establish compliancy as required by OSHA. Every clinic that uses a Class IIIB or Class IV laser is required to appoint a Medical Laser Safety Officer and implement a laser safety plan.
We support practitioners and private practices by giving them the necessary training and support they need to operate safely, meeting national laser safety standards and federal regulations.
