Scrub Technician Jobs

A Scrub Technician, also known as a Surgical Technologist, is an integral part of the healthcare industry, specifically within the operating room. These professionals prepare the operating room and ensure all surgical equipment is properly sterilized and functioning. They also assist surgeons during procedures by handing them instruments and other supplies. Moreover, they may help in patient preparation, from disinfecting incision sites to positioning them on the operating table. Scrub Technicians need to be adept at following strict health and safety protocols and have a thorough understanding of surgical procedures and tools.

Scrub Technicians typically need a postsecondary nondegree award or associate's degree in surgical technology. They should hold a Certified Surgical Technologist (CST) certification from The National Board of Surgical Technology and Surgical Assisting or a Tech in Surgery - Certified (TS-C) from the National Center for Competency Testing. Prior to becoming a Scrub Technician, individuals might have roles such as a Phlebotomist, Certified Nursing Assistant, or Medical Assistant. These roles provide valuable patient care experience and familiarize individuals with the medical environment, helping them transition smoothly into the role of a Scrub Technician.
