Cleaning Up a Spill (Radiation Safety for Material Users)

[@gerseykev]

Good video to show your employees as part of ongoing training & information.

Good video, although at 2:26 holding a source over a upside down probe is a good way of contaminating your lab safety equipment. Here you are dealing with a liquid source, so its risk unless sopping wet for spreading contamination is low its still there. It's good practice to avoid this method of checking.

Good video! I'm not used to using 2 gloves although I know it's mandatory on some labs. For me it is a big no to see someone pick up equipment or hold a pen with a glove. Also wetting a contamination is not smart because it can cause spreading of the contamination. Later on in the video a towel was wetted and used for decontamination which is preferable. But for the rest: good instruction!
