NOT required on a hospital ID badge?

• A. Type of license
• B. Photo
• C. Name
• D. Work division

Answer: (B)

The information on a hospital ID badge should make it easy to verify who you are, that you are legally authorized to practice, and what your role is in the facility. Displaying the type of license shows you’re licensed as a radiologic technologist and clarifies the scope you’re authorized to perform. Your name provides clear personal identification, which is essential for patient safety and accountability. Indicating your work division communicates your department or function, helping with security, routing, and team coordination. A photograph, while useful for quick visual checks, isn’t a mandated element in this context, so it isn’t required on the badge.
