Therapy Physics

Empowerment, Innovation & Integrity

Global Physics Solutions (GPS) is a group of ABR Board Certified and Board Eligible Physicists and Certified Medical Dosimetrists. These individuals are available to hospitals and free-standing facilities across the country through long-term relationships. GPS also provides short term clinical coverage, acceptance and commissioning of new linear accelerators and treatment planning computers.

Affiliating with GPS can benefit an Oncology Program in numerous ways:

Continuity of Coverage - GPS provides guaranteed coverage. The Oncology Program will never have an interruption of physics services again due to turnover or vacation.
Scalable Coverage - GPS provides maximum staffing flexibility by being able to support on-site multiple or partial FTE’s as well as possible remote services for sporadic volume increases.
Safety & Risk Management – GPS is a group practice with formal peer-to-peer interaction and built-in safety checks. The Oncology Program can have confidence in the risk management processes implemented by GPS.
High Quality – GPS physicists have a wealth of resources to support them. GPS continuously trains and cross-trains our staff in order to be able to support the latest technology and can help practices launch new programs, install new equipment or offer new services. For example:
- GPS has 25% of the Certified Rapid Arc Physicists in the World;
- GPS has unparalleled experience with all the Vendor platforms covering HDR, Linear Accelerators, Treatment Planning Systems and SRS;
- GPS physicists can assist in establishing and/or supporting LDR / SRS / HDR programs;
- GPS physicists are qualified to provide dosimetry support to the Oncology Program’s dosimetrists;
GPS improves job satisfaction and retention by providing training, support, and GPS physicists are trained to be an integral part of the department and are challenged to aid in department development and growth.

GPS provides high value for the services it provides to Oncology Programs and affiliating with GPS acts as an insurance policy against future turnover. With GPS staffing a physics position, the Oncology Program will not have to worry about recruiting, relocation, length of vacancy or other turnover costs again.
