UVA Health's laser safety program was developed to provide hospital staff the training tools needed to provide a safe work environment during the use of healthcare laser systems.  The program follows the ANSI standards Z136.1 (American National Standard for Safe Use of Lasers) and Z136.3 (American National Standard for Safe Use of Lasers in Health Care), which are the guiding documents for the proper and safe use of laser systems.
