A technologist steps into a negative-pressure isolation room without an N95 — just for a second, just to grab something. That second is exactly when exposure happens.
This episode covers airborne, droplet, and contact precautions, and how each changes workflow, equipment use, and communication in the imaging suite. We also cover protective isolation for vulnerable patients and the psychological and communication challenges that come with isolating any patient, without compromising their dignity.
Designed for radiologic technology students across all modalities — and just as useful for nursing students and anyone in a patient-facing healthcare role. Board-exam-relevant content, explained conversationally.

Episode 22: Section 6 — Infection Control | Microlearning 6.3 — Standard Precautions and Infection Control
A technologist reaches beneath a trauma patient to remove a used cassette — without stopping to think about what might be on it. Standard Precautions exist for exactly this kind ofunplanned moment.
This episode covers Standard Precautions as the foundation of infection control in healthcare, including bloodborne pathogen risks like HIV and hepatitis B, protective barrierpractices, and safe handling of biomedical waste. We also cover how to respond appropriately if an exposure incident occurs, including the everyday risk of a needlestick injury.

Episode 21: Section 6 — Infection Control | Microlearning 6.2 — Infection Cycle and Prevention
The same pair of gloves gets used to prepare contrast for one patient, then the next. No one meant any harm — but that's exactly how the infection cycle keeps its chain intact.
This episode walks through each link in the infection cycle — reservoirs, transmission modes, and portals of entry and exit — and the practical strategies that interrupt the spread ofdisease in a busy imaging department. You'll learn how small workflow habits translate directly into patient and staff protection.
