Laser and intense light warning signs
Signage is one way to help control access to the room whilst treatments are in progress. The aim of the sign in this context is simply to deter anyone from attempting to enter.
Examples of warning signs are given below. These can be printed off and laminated. Alternatively, for a more professional finish, a local print-shop will be able to print onto a more sturdy material.
Treatment rooms are only hazardous whilst laser treatments are underway, so ideally signs should only be displayed when the room is in use. However, for rooms where the machines are more or less in constant use, it might be appropriate to use signs stating that the laser may be in use. Some examples are given below.
Signs do have limitations, for example, they will not physically stop someone entering a room. Also, not everyone will recognise the yellow symbols, or even read English. Ideally, signs should be displayed at eye level.
