Basic Info on this page, and follow links for more details

#1 - EVERY health care facility is required to have a trained LSO - hospitals, surgery centers, offices, medispas, et al
                 Certification is a separate process from the Certificate of Training. You get BOTH here.

#2 - Our 2 day course can meet your required training needs in THREE ways
      a. MLSO initial training AND certification, both days
      b. MLSO recurrency training, Day one only - required a minimum of once every 5 years, recommended annually
      c. Laser Operator required academic training, Day one only.
              The operator is the person that runs the laser control panel for the physician, this is not the LSO

It is IMPORTANT to maintain compliance with ANSI Z136.3 standards by ensuring that you have a properly trained and certified Laser Safety Officer overseeing your program, that staff and laser operators have approporiate training documentation, and that you comply with periodic Laser Safety Audits.

ANSI Z136.3 recommends certification as a medical LSO and the NCLC offers respected LSO certifications supporting laser safety in healthcare settings. You can get the training and certification in one session.


You can do ALL of this in our two day program. There is even an optional THIRD day for live firing of lasers to meet the experience requirements of hands-on work recommended by ANSI.
