Radiology Educational Program for Dental Assistants - May - October 2008

Back to Health Professions Institute

(formerly Radiology Exam Prep and Review for Dental Assistants)

All persons operating diagnostic x-ray equipment in the state of Indiana must be certified by the Indiana State Board of Health (ISDH).
 

For certification, each diagnostic x-ray machine operator must:

1. Enroll in a state approved education program (fulfilled by this course) and complete course requirements at a 70% competency level.
2. Obtain a provisional permit from the ISDH once admitted into the program.
3. Complete an approved education program (fulfilled by this course).
4. Concurrently complete clinical training in a dental office with a licensed dental radiographer..
5. Upon completion of the educational program (this course) and the clinical training in an office, submit the "Certificate of Proficiency for Limited Radiographer" form available at http://www.in.gov/icpr/webfile/formsdiv/53194.pdf  to the Indiana State Department of Health to receive eligibility to take the Dental Assisting National Board (DANB) Radiology Health and Safety Examination.

6. Pass the Dental Assisting National Board (DANB) Radiology Health and Safety Examination.

 

This course is approved by the Indiana Department of Health as an educational program and fulfills the education portion of
the license requirement. It includes weekly lectures, lab demonstrations and testing. A mock certification exam is held during the tenth class session followed by an individual
consultation to review your results at the last class meeting.
 

"It better equipped me for the State Board."

Radiology Exam Preparation

 

 

The course does not provide the clinical training required for certification.
Applications for a provisional radiology permit will be provided at the first class. However, the student will be responsible for completing an application and sending it to the ISDH.

 

Information regarding the new certification policies and procedures can be found at http://www.in.gov/isdh/23279.htm

 

Information about the DANB exam can be found at www.danb.org.
