Your everyday experiences, knowledge, skills, empathy, compassion, and personality all add up to you. We’re excited to get to know you and find out what you’ll bring to this crucial surgical team role. Responsibilities

Use proper sterilization methods for instruments prior to procedures. Understand asepsis and the standards and techniques to address asepsis and take corrective action when any unsafe practice, conditions or breaks occur. Prepare the operating room with sterile supplies, instruments, and sutures. Follow policies for scrubbing, gowning, gloving, draping and counting with the circulating nurse. Perform the role of first scrub on basic surgical cases. Anticipate the needs and assist the surgeon with retracting tissue, holding instrumentation and cutting suture. The Must-Haves
