This Handbook describes an implementation process for core training as recommended in chapter 14 to Implementation Guide G441.1-1C , Radiation Protection Programs for Use with Title 10, Code of Federal Regulations, Part 835, Occupational Radiation Protection, and as outlined in the DOE standard, Radiological Control (RCS). The Handbook is meant to assist those individuals within the Department of Energy, Managing and Operating contractors, and Managing and Integrating contractors identified as having responsibility for implementing core training recommended by the RCS. While this Handbook addresses the training requirements of 10 CFR 835.103 for Radiological Control Technicians, it must be supplemented with facility specific information to achieve full compliance. Superseded by Change Notice 2, dated 3-11-2011.

Injuries occurring in radiological areas, particularly in contaminated, airborne, or areas with high radiation dose rates require special considerations above and beyond standard first aid. The RCT may often be the first person or one of the first, to arrive at the scene of an injury. Because of this, the RCT must know how first aid requirements and radiological control requirements may conflict and on what basis to establish priorities. This lesson will introduce the special considerations for injuries in radiological areas.
