• Software systems include Mosaiq for record keeping and RayStation for treatment planning.

Team & Culture

• Collaboration is a cornerstone of the department, with open communication across Teams and group threads involving RNs, Physicists, and Dosimetrists.

• Monthly therapist meetings include all service lines across Arizona, and interdisciplinary rounds are available for those who wish to participate.

Training & Development

• Continuing education is actively supported through vendor-led in-services, many of which offer CE credits.
