We are seeking a highly efficient, adaptable, and motivated Certified Surgical Technologist for a per diem position at our Ambulatory Surgery Center.
In this role, you will serve as the primary scrub technologist, maintaining a rigid sterile field and anticipating the needs of the surgeon during fast-paced outpatient procedures.
Because this is a per diem role in an ASC environment, the ideal candidate possesses exceptional clinical intuition across multiple ambulatory specialties, requires minimal orientation, and thrives in a high-turnover, team-oriented setting.

- Specimen Care: Safely handle, identify, and hand off surgical specimens to the circulator for proper labeling.
- Education: Graduate of an accredited Surgical Technology program.
- Certification: Active Certified Surgical Technologist (CST) credential from the NBSTSA or NCCT is required.
- Experience: Minimum of 1–2 years of recent, independent scrubbing experience, preferably within an ASC or high-volume outpatient setting.
