Radiology - IR Tech

Interventional Radiology Technologist

The technologist will work 4x10 hour shifts, Monday - Friday, from 07:30 to 18:00, with one Saturday shift from 08:00 to 16:00 in a 13-week period. Weekend call will be from Friday 16:00 to Monday 07:30, and the technologist will be assigned weekend call 1-2 times during the assignment. In addition to call, the technologist may be scheduled as "backup". Due to the nature of the procedural area, the work may not always be completed at the end of the scheduled shift. The expectation is that the agency technologist may be assigned backup once a week.

Daily caseload per technologist is 6-8 procedures. There are 9 rooms available for procedures. First-time applicants with 2 years of experience are welcome. Travelers will float within their scope of care as needed. Local candidates are not accepted within a 75-mile radius. Special requirements include experience with C-Arm and contrast.
