Prepare and maintain sterile fields, equipment, and instruments for surgical procedures, ensuring readiness and adherence to established protocols.
Assist surgeons intraoperatively by providing exposure, controlling bleeding, handling tissue, suturing, positioning instruments, and performing other delegated surgical-assist tasks within scope of practice.
Collaborate with the circulating RN and surgical team to support patient positioning, equipment setup, specimen handling, and accurate count procedures.
Monitor and maintain instrument function, arrange for necessary repairs, and ensure proper cleaning and care of surgical equipment following each case.
Document required information and communicate effectively with surgeons, anesthesia providers, and nursing staff to promote safe, efficient case progression.
Participate in ongoing competency development, quality initiatives, and adherence to perioperative standards to support continuous improvement of surgical services.

Current certification as one of the following:
- Certified Surgical First Assistant (CSFA/CSTFA) through the National Board of Surgical Technology and Surgical Assisting (NBSTSA); or

Physical Requirements:

The Surgical Assistant is frequently required to stand for prolonged periods, move throughout the operating suite, and assist with patient positioning and transfer activities. The role includes lifting, pushing, and maneuvering surgical equipment, instrument trays, and sterile supplies. Strong manual dexterity, visual acuity, and the ability to respond quickly in fast-paced operative environments are essential for performing fine motor tasks and ensuring patient safety.

Environmental Requirements:

Work is performed in a high-acuity surgical environment with exposure to bright lighting, bodily fluids, sharp instruments, sterilization chemicals, and complex medical equipment.
