Job description
Job Description
Join a 13-week travel assignment in Aspen as a Surgical Technologist working four 10-hour mid shifts each week. You will prepare operating rooms, organize instruments and supplies, maintain the sterile field, and support surgical procedures throughout the intraoperative period. This role calls for experience with orthopedic cases and the da Vinci Robot, along with the ability to work collaboratively with the perioperative team. At approximately 8,000 feet, Aspen adds a high-altitude twist to this assignment, so travelers must be healthy enough to safely function in a low-oxygen environment.
