Sr Michelle Blondell & Sr Carol Allen attended training and were the first RN’s to be licensed to take x-rays in Coober Pedy.  This service reduced the need for some patients not having to travel out of town for a routine basic x-ray.  Trained RN’s continue to take basic x-rays today with radiographers reading the x-ray through digital imaging and IT technology.  The community still need to access out of town services for more complex x-rays and ultrasounds.
