The Surgical Technology program is designed to instruct in all phases of surgical technology. Upon completion, the graduate can effectively work as a Surgical Technologist, with and under the supervision of surgeons or registered nurses and become an integral part of the team providing care to patients during the crucial periods of surgery. Much of the training is focused on the clinical aspect of the program, where the students gain skills in helping to set up the operating room; prepare patients for surgery; scrub, gown and glove self and other team members; pass instruments and other sterile supplies to surgeons; help care for and dispose of specimens; and assist nurses in cleaning and stocking the operating room for the next operation. The curriculum reflects the latest developments in biomedical science. Graduates of the surgical Technology program may be employed as entry-level members of an operating room team, working alongside surgeons, anesthesiologist, and circulating nurses. In addition to hospital operating rooms, our graduates will be qualified to work in surgical centers, delivery rooms, and medical clinics.
