    • Operate and maintain radiation therapy equipment, including linear accelerators, imaging devices, and dosimetry equipment.
    • Conduct daily equipment checks to ensure proper function and calibration of radiation delivery systems.
    • Report any equipment malfunctions or issues to the physicist or supervisor and follow up to ensure timely resolution.
    • 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.

    • 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.
    • Maintain a clean and safe work environment, adhering to infection control and safety protocols.
  • Collaboration with the Healthcare Team:
