The purpose of this refresher course is to enable you to maintain your knowledge base of rules and regulations which change, so that you are compliant with requirements for the location of business activity and are safe with the ultimate end user, the patient. It is accepted that much of the basic information is not repeated here – although some of it is. Much of what we remind you of relates to the safety frameworks which reduce risk to patients, yourself and also to other team members.
