Nursing / Allied Health

*With new Nursing/Allied Health Laser Learning Lab Roundtable*

Participants The activity is designed for nurses, clinicians, and other allied health professionals who work with laser, light and other energy-based technologies.

Background Requirements Attendees should possess a basic understanding of laser, light and energy-based technologies for cutaneous applications.

Educational Needs/Expected Learning Objectives This session will address the practice gaps that exist between scopes of practice in the use of lasers and light-based devices within different specialties. The session identifies the need for either both more basic as well as more advanced lectures to better address the needs of different specialties in the audience. And finally, the session includes knowledge of laser safety, best practices and increased understanding of lasers and energy devices.
