![]() I am sure there are more differences, but it is 3 a.m. ![]() This provides space for proper clinical care and patient movement while ensuring easy. Bari Rehab Platform 3 features an Expandable Deck that allows the bed to easily transition from 39 to 48 widths. Although I was hired in a lesser role, I was given the opportunity to jump in and use my marketing skills in multiple areas. My time at Sizewise Rentals was short but very much enjoyed. In the navy, that was not the case.ĥ) As an ELT, your chemistry background will help very little as a RCT.Ħ) In the navy, the RCA was small.in the civilian world, the area is HUGE Our bariatric bed is designed to support patients up to 1,000 pounds and to accommodate a variety of patient widths and heights. Office Assistant (Former Employee) - Ellis, KS - October 6, 2017. A little study in the "fringe" elements of radiation protection, and you should pass no trouble.Ĥ) Power plants are here to make money, at a lot of plants, you will be little more than a speed bump. More differences from a power plant road tech's view:ġ) Contamination is quantified in dpm/100cm2, not uuCi/100cm2 (Initially hard to grasp what level of contamination you really have)Ģ) USN put large emphasis on contam control.lax on radiation exposure.Civilian has lax contam controls and relatively tight radiation exposure controlsģ) Testing in the civilian world is MUCH simpler than the navy.Ī) Other than the info on instruments and units used in the civilian world, you can pass the north east utilities exam straight out of the navy.ī) Take the NRRPT as soon as you qualify. Use your experience to anticipate problems during the pre-job brief and most of them won't materialize. One of the beauties of being ex-nuc is that you will have a useful insight into the other persons job since you used to do some of them. The DOE sites I've been working at for the last 9 years were all shut down at least 5 years before I got there If it weren't so f_ u_ I wouldn't have a job. That last may seem cynical, but here is an axiom that may help. Poor training and practice by radiological workers. ![]() Shockingly high levels and lax control of contamination and radioactive material. In the DOE (or commercial) world, you have defined 8 or 10 hour workdays, overtime pay for anything over 40 hrs/wk$$$. On the boat, your salary is fixed by rank and time in, leaking contaminated systems don't exist, every piece of radioactive material is tagged and inventoried, every worker graduated NPS and NPTU. Not all sites test all parts.Īs far as what to expect when you deal with DOE (or commercial power) vs USN. The DOE core exam consists of 6 to 10? parts, each of which need a score of 80% to pass. The parts I review every other year (2 year requal cycle)are the contribution of various natural sources to background radiation and the significant dates. The DOE core shouldn't be a math or physics challenge for an NPS graduate, but some of the area definitions are different enough to trip you up. Some (most) of it will seem same-old, but there are some things done differently from 389-0153. If you can search the web for 10CFR835 (you don't need to buy it), read it. If you contact the site (or the contract companies site coordinator), they can hook you up.
