This service reduces the barriers faced by patients in correctional facilities when accessing healthcare by: taking X-rays onsite, providing appropriate treatment, and reducing avoidable transfers to hospital.
In addition to the significant benefits to patients, onsite X-ray operators have also reported improved job satisfaction through being able to work to their full scope of practice.
