The Opportunity Memorial Healthcare is seeking a highly adaptable, multi-skilled Radiologic Technologist to join our premier Regional Float Pool. If you thrive on variety, enjoy autonomy, and want to maximize your earning potential, this is the role for you.

As a Regional Float Technologist, you will not be tethered to a single "home" clinic. Instead, you will serve as a crucial clinical expert traveling across our outpatient and Urgent Care network to fill scheduled vacancies, managing diagnostic X-ray imaging, patient registration, and phlebotomy.

Because you are stepping up to provide essential float coverage, we have designed a compensation and scheduling package that heavily rewards your mobility and protects your time off:

• Lucrative Daily Travel Stipends: You will receive a $100 flat travel stipend for every shift you work at a clinic located outside of your home city. For example, if you reside in Owosso, every shift you cover in St. Johns, Perry, or Flushing comes with an extra $100 on top of your base pay!
• No Mandatory On-Call: Because your primary purpose is dedicated schedule coverage, your off-hours are fiercely protected. You are completely exempt from our mandatory on-call rotation (though you are always welcome to pick up on-call shifts voluntarily for premium 1.5x pay).

What You Will Do

• Travel to various regional clinics to provide seamless coverage for scheduled PTO and vacancies.
• Independently perform high-quality diagnostic radiographic examinations.
• Execute front-end outpatient workflows, including patient registration and phlebotomy (lab draws).
• Maintain autonomous daily operations of the clinic's imaging and lab intake.

• Certifications: ARRT (R) required. Current Basic Life Support (BLS) certification required.
• Experience: Clinical experience in general radiography required. Prior experience with phlebotomy and patient registration is strongly preferred (cross-training provided for the right candidate).
