Beyond the bustling operating rooms, you'll discover a community heavily invested in innovation, connection, and endless possibilities.
This is more than just a role; it’s a meaningful vocation. Whether you're an experienced CST or embarking on your career in surgical services, your keen attention to detail, proactive anticipation of needs, and unwavering desire to impact lives will be recognized and appreciated day in and day out. What better place to elevate your career than in Sacramento, a region that beautifully marries medical prowess with unparalleled cultural richness?

- Collaborating closely with nurses, anesthesiologists, and other surgical personnel to guarantee seamless patient care
- Keenly maintaining accurate surgical counts and essential documentation
Education Requirements:
- Completion of a nationally accredited Surgical Technology program
- A high school diploma or equivalent is required
Certifications Needed:
- Current CST (Certified Surgical Technologist) certification is essential
- BLS certification (or the ability to secure it within 90 days of employment)
Key Skills and Attributes:
- Extensive understanding of surgical instruments and procedures spanning various specialties
- Exceptional communication and teamwork aptitude, particularly in high-stress settings
- The ability to prioritize swiftly and address the surgical team's needs efficiently
- Strong organizational skills with a meticulous eye for cleanliness and detail
- Expertise in aseptic techniques and maintaining sterile operating environments
Why This Role Stands Out:
- Flexible scheduling — options for days, nights, and weekends available
- Collaborate alongside a high-achieving surgical team across an array of procedures
- Ongoing opportunities for education, training, and career advancement
- Access to cutting-edge surgical technology and modern equipment
- A supportive leadership team that truly values your expertise and contributions
