Surgical technologists, also called operating room technologists, assist in operations under the supervision of surgeons, registered nurses, or other surgical personnel. Before an operation, surgical technologists help set up the operating room with surgical instruments and equipment, and sterile solutions. They assemble, adjust, and check non-sterile equipment to ensure that all is working properly. Technologists also prepare patients for surgery by washing, shaving, and disinfecting incision sites. They transport patients to the operating room and help position them on the operating table. Technologists also observe patients’ vital signs and check charts. The technologist helps the surgical team don sterile gowns and gloves, and apply the sterile surgical “drapes'' prior to the start ofthe surgical procedure.  \nDuring surgery, technologists pass instruments and other sterile supplies to surgeons and surgeon assistants. They may hold retractors, cut sutures, and help count sponges, needles, supplies, and instruments. Surgical technologists help prepare, care for, and dispose of specimens taken for laboratory analysis and may help apply dressings. They may operate sterilizers, lights, or suction machines, and help operate diagnostic equipment. After an operation, surgical technologists may help transfer patients to the recovery room, and clean and restock the operating room.  \nThis program provides classroom education and supervised clinical experience. Students take courses in anatomy and physiology, microbiology, pharmacology, professional ethics, medical terminology, speech, computers and psychology. Other studies cover the care and safety of patients during surgery, aseptic techniques and surgical procedures. Students also learn to sterilize instruments, prevent and control infection, and handle special drugs, solutions, supplies and equipment.  \nSurgical Technologists must possess manual dexterity to handle instruments efficiently and quickly. They also must be conscientious, orderly, and emotionally stable to handle the demands ofthe operating room environment. Technologists must respond quickly and have a full understanding of the procedures so that they may anticipate the needs of the surgeons without having to be asked for instruments or supplies. They are expected to keep abreast of new developments in the field.  \nTechnologists advance by specializing in a particular area of surgery, such as orthopedics, neurosurgery or open heart surgery. They may also work as circulating technologists. A circulating technologist is the “unsterile”person during the procedure that interviews the patient before surgery, keeps a written account of the surgical procedure and answers the surgeon’s questions about the patient during the surgery. With additional training, some technologists advance to first assistants, who help with retracting, sponging, suturing, cauterizing bleeders, and closing and treating wounds. Some surgical technologists manage central supply departments in hospitals or take positions with insurance companies, sterile supply services, and operating equipment firms. Most surgical technologists work in hospitals. They spend much of their time on their feet.  \nThis program is a hybrid program offered only during the day. A combination of online didactic instruction and face to face lab/clinical training is provided.  \nSurgical Technology Program Contact Information  \nYolanda Ramirez CST, [BAT ","cbCais5Pz5UBxGQP","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCais5Pz5UBxGQP","pdf",414575,22,"English","# Program Description\n## Curriculum Requirements\n## Scholastic Criteria\n## Admission Requirements\n## Selection Process\n## Technical Standards and Essential Functions\n## Occupational Risks\n## ADA and Title IX\n## Student Health Requirements\n## Criminal Background Check Policy\n## Drug Testing Policy\n## Clinical Experience\n## Graduation, Certification, Employment\n## Tuition and Expenses\n## Program Contact Information","[{\"question\":\"What courses and subject areas are included in the Surgical Technology program curriculum?\",\"answer\":\"Students complete coursework in anatomy and physiology, microbiology, pharmacology, professional ethics, medical terminology, speech, computers and psychology.
