- W2189091692 abstract "A COMPREHENSIVE radiation code promulgated in 1955 by the Public Health Council of the New York State Department of Health required all radiation installations to be registered with the health department by March 1, 1956. Administrative rules of the health department now require that radiation insta.llations be inspected at specified intervals. These rules, necessary as they were, posed an immediate enforcement problem. In New York State, outside of New York City, there are about 7,400 X-ray units located at 6,400 installations. One of the immediate tasks facing the radiological health section of the New York State Department of Health was the development of a thorough understanding about the requirements of the code on the part of operators of X-ray installations and health department personnel. Operators would have to be advised as to how they could conform to the new requirements of the code. Experience in other programs has convinced us that face-to-face meetings with the operators at the installation are very effective in obtaining understanding and cooperation. At such meetings the State health department personnel observe equipment and techniques, note hazards, and show the operators how and why improvements and corrections can be made. An inservice training program in radiological he.alth for State health department personnel was established prior to 1955 and is still in operation. A limited number of inspections were made in 1955 and 1956; and in 1957, full-time State and local health personnel visited 487 installations. At this pace, it would take several years to complete the all-important first visit to each of the 6,400 installations. The pace picked up speed in 1958 when 2,373 inspections were made, mainly because of more active participation by local health units. However, the addition of two school teachers as inspectors on a vacation-time basis also was important. They were trained by State health department personnel and worked during July and August. When the quality and quantity of their work was evaluated, it was clearly evident that they had performed competently. With the excellent work re-cords of these two men as credentials, the department of health was able to get funds for 80 man-weeks of temporary help the following summer. These temporary men were employed to supplement the existing staff in order to complete the first visit to each of the installations at the earliest practical date. On completion of the initial inspection of all installations, the need for temporary personnel will be considerably reduced. The personnel office of the department canvassed applicants who had previously sought employment. Universities and other educational institutions were contacted. All applicants were interviewed and their qualifications were considered on the basis of their education, training and experience, availability of a car, and residence. A degree in the, sciences or engineering, with a physics or chemistry major, and teaching experience in these fields at high school or college level were required. Participation in a civil defense radiological health program was considered especially desirable, and some applicants were in fact recruited through the office of local civil defense directors. Although applicants were required to proMr. Davies is chief of the radiological health section, division of environmental health services, New York State Department of Health." @default.
