The First Dedicated Proton Therapy Training Facility in the World
The ProCure Training and Development Center (TDC), located in Bloomington, Ind., is the first facility in the world dedicated to proton therapy training. It offers clinical, technical, interpersonal and administrative training that pertains to all aspects of proton therapy treatment.
In addition to lecture rooms, the TDC is equipped with full-size treatment rooms equipped with state-of-the art equipment – everything but the protons— to simulate the total work environment for treating patients.
The TDC provides advanced before-the-job training programs designed specifically for the needs of radiation oncologists, medical physicists, dosimetrists, radiation therapists and other staff involved in proton therapy treatment. Staff will be trained before a proton therapy center is opened and ready to treat patients, ensuring that patient treatments can begin in an efficient and safe manner reducing the start-up time.
