Surgical Tech Tips watching this video over again and found my comment. I did get accepted and I start in September! Still watch your videos all the time.
What's your Instagram
How's it been so far?:)
@@Ahn-mu3db wow can’t believe my comment was 3 years ago😭 it’s great! I finished school last year and i’ve been working at a hospital! love it
I couldn't agree more! ask questions, ask questions, ask questions! even if it is about the recovery time, it makes you look interested. if you follow this then you should be able to get a job. you don't have to be the best tech just the most ancious to learn. I've been to 2 clemical rotations so far and I've had a job offer from both by asking questions and being willing to learn.
I had so many questions when I started my clinical rotations. My instructor told me not to ask questions or speak unless spoken to, but the surgeons and staff did not like that. They asked me why i was not talking and I told them why. So Now I have learned to ask questions always or ask if I can ask questions before the procedure begins.
Wow your instructor told you that? That is extremely bad advice..
Thank you SO MUCH! I'll be going out to clinicals in April and as soon as you started speaking I was like I agree 100% with what he's saying.
And then you said the tip about I Know...oh my god. Couldn't be more true. I have taken it out of my vocabulary with my Observation and Lab teacher.
Thanks a million!
sitting here- with my notepad- researching for my first case of the day tomorrow (wk 3 of clinicals) and your video comes up. Thanks for your youtube channel and facebook. You are appreciated.
Awesome video man, watched it before my first day at clinicals. Got thrown on a ACDF for my first time scrubing at clinicals and was quite overwhelmed at first. But every point you talked about work wonders for me and has helped me learn alot!! Keep up the good work man!
I am about to start my externship and I'm so excited! Thanks for these awesome tips, I love your videos!
Genesis Gomez where can you get these exterships opportunities
Good luck beautiful
Externs start tomorrow!!! Yep, I’m nervous but excited as well..... great advice!
Thanks man! You videos get me fired up!
I submitted my application for a program today! Hoping for the best!
These videos are so awesome! Thank you!
thx man keep making the vids man they really help. bout to go on externship in June so this really helped me. thx again.
+John Wood great to hear!
Love your videos
thanks for the video, great advice
How about a video on getting a surgical tech job fresh grad with no experience
As tech preceptor ,if the student does not take notes then I am not impressed . To me they are not taking my teaching seriously.
myduffzv53 hello would you be interested in doing some one on one tutoring with me once I start the program ?
I don't take notes because while I am writing I am missing a lot because its distracting. But I remember everything well and write down key points after I turnover before opening the next case for later. Notes are situational and I hate it when people think you NEED to take notes.
I just got accepted into the surg tech program as of yesterday and start in Jan. I'm so scared for all of it!
What do you expect from the classes/courseload outside of clinicals?
Thank you in school now. Clinicals in January.
Can someone help!!! I found a online program that requires you to get your own clinical scrubs. How do I find a clinical site?
Thank you so much
my instuctors literally said to limit asking questions lol
I Love the videos
This makes me so warm and NOT STRESSED thank you!! ❤️
Can you get hired for an externship in the OR if you are confined to a wheelchair? I want to be a CST, but I am afraid of being rejected for it because of my wheelchair.
im currently in my 2nd term of my surgical tech course. will be starting clinicals in may. im already a medical assistant, but this is different of course.
any tips will help...
as a resident physician, i value techs so much, they're golden in the OR and they taught me a lot, just listen so much as to how they setup for the cases and be in tune with your surgeon and the whole situation, sometimes things are peaceful and sometimes things flip, just have good awareness of the situation and try to listen, this guy already gave great tips that benefit us all in the OR, take care, good luck!
How long does externship usually last? And would you recommend job shadowing? I was thinking about job shadowing a surgical tech while attending college.
I'm currently looking for a career change. Got my bachelors in business administration a few years ago but really always wanted to work in the medical field. Never knew about surgery tech. Wish I been knew because I would have saved me a lot of money. I this is something I would really like to do instead of nursing. Plan on starting in January with a 12 month program. Thanks for the vids.
J Martin that's great to hear! Good luck on your new venture.
J Martin how was your program been so far? I’m think about a career switch also.
I’m in the same boat. I have a bachelors degree in business also but I’m considering a career change. To do surgical tech. I’m nervous about the change and it’s a new venture in my life but excited about it.
ur amazing!
LOL, thanks!
omg I can't believe you responded LOL! I am actually still watching your videos. They are an incredible resource, I am still taking my prereqs to apply to the program. I have gotten 100 on both exams so far, but can't decide between rad tech and ST. You're giving me great insight, so please keep making them! Thanks so much!
I'm in the middle of my perioperative nursing theory course and everything I've read seems to state that talking should be kept to a minimum, do you feel there is there a limit to asking questions or certain time it is more appropriate during the case?
+Jonathan Ramsay there is definitely a good time to talk, and a bad time to talk in surgery. You will know from how the case is going and body language of the surgeon whether or not it is a good time to talk.
Yes I am looking for that ? How do we find it ?
I just started my CST program this month. Is it hard to find a job after graduation? Most job listings I’ve viewed are requiring 1 to 2 years of experience.
How are you doing now?
I'm going to externship in 2 days, do you have any tip for my first day? Im so nervous
notes notes notes.
I am in college to be a surgical tech, but I have a stutter when I talk, would this causes a problem when applying for jobs?
Hey what's your advice for a student Fresh out of school looking a job in a new state ?
+Jessie Stewart Apply, apply, apply. Callback and check up on your applications, and take any position in the hospital possible is a tech position isn't available in your area right away. Having your foot in the door already working at a hospital works wonders. Having staff able to see your work ethic first hand is priceless.
can a lvn work as a surgical tech,here in Dallas there's a hospital hiring for surgical tech but it states sct or lvn??
+not your average not sure what Ivn stands for?
Surgical Tech Tips licensed vocational nurse
not your average I personally have seen or heard of a lvn being used in the OR in the scrub position.
Surgical Tech Tips OK thanks
What are the physical demand on surgery tech?
how long is the internship
depends on the school, but usually 5-6 months
+Surgical Tech Tips will I get paid for it
I said something to a girl in high school about clinical rotation and got slapped
+E Bisquit 🤣
1:11 EHEM what's wrong with me then?
+Isaiah Sharpe LOL, nothing. Just saying it's totally normal to be freaked out a bit.
Just be real fam, as techs you will be treated like shit. You speak from being abused and mistreated. Techs shouldn't have feelings or emotions just do what your told stroke everyone else ego and go home.
So basically get abuse and like it
