Be part of the surgical team with a degree in 15 months
Surgical Technologists are allied health professionals and an integral part of the
medical team providing surgical care to patients.
Surgical Technologists work under the supervision and delegatory authority of a surgeon
to facilitate the safe and effective conduct of invasive and non-invasive surgical
procedures, ensuring that the operating room environment is safe, that equipment functions
properly, and that the operative procedure is conducted under conditions that maximize
patient safety. Surgical Technologists are experts in the theory and application of
the principles of asepsis and sterile technique to combine the knowledge of human
anatomy, surgical procedures, and implementation and tools and technologies to facilitate
a physician's performance of invasive therapeutic and diagnostic procedures.
