Surgical Technologists function as a member of the sterile surgical team in the scrub role, and are responsible for establishing and maintaining the sterile field throughout the entire surgery. You will train to handle the instrumentation, supplies, and equipment necessary for all surgical procedures, and will have an understanding of each of the procedures being performed in order to anticipate the needs of the surgeon.
