They actually assist doctors during surgeries and the nurses assist the techs 😊
Sort of.
Yeah nurses circulate and are considered non - sterile team members. Techs are sterile team members are scrubbed in and therefore restricted and relies on the nurse (to what degree in my opinion determines the effectiveness of the tech). All members are super integral to the team!
@@gabrielharward4189 yes!!! All members are important. I definitely rely on my circulating nurses. I’m a new grad in the field . Without them I’d be so lost😂😂😂
It’s a team sport really, the doctor obviously has his license and the nurse has theirs but it’s really a team effort.
Some states definitely underpay for all that we do🥴 I’m just lucky to live in Texas where starting pay is $50-$60,000 a year. Average is $80,000
In California, I made over $140,000 last year 40 hours per week with additional standby hours.
That’s motivating!!!!!!!!. I’m waiting on hearing back if I was accepted into the SURG tech program right now so it feels good to hear how much you’ve made.
How long have you been a surgical tech for?
For surgical tech how long did you take it ? Is it bachelor or associate degree?
@@icared4338it’s changing to become an Associate level. Get in asap before then
@@nc7138we’re you accepted 🙏
In Illinois it’s 105,432 per year plus additional and can make up to 61 an hour depending on experience but you have to obtain an associate degree or have similar experience for a year than obtain an associate degree for 1 year but you have to have an 2 year degree
I'm from ohio and started in the 90th percentile 😅
Now I travel and am in the 10th percentile 💪🏿
Do you mind me asking, do you have a associate or bachelors degree?
@@HealthyhairIdocare associates degree in applied science for surgical technology 👍🏿
@Jordan Hassell that's amazing!! I'm working on getting enrolled for the fall semester. One school I was looking at the program 'all inclusive' is $60,000 😱
I thought no way but saw another for associates was approx $40,000 and one for over 30k but the ST program is actually longer to complete and I have most prereqs already done. I'm frustrated and kind of stuck now. ⚖️ spend more money and finish fast or spend less and spend more time in school. 🙇🏾♀️
@@Ashley-og9ti I'd say do what's best for your schedule and budget. What matters most is quality of education. Just because the school cost more doesn't make it's program superior. Now that I've been in the field for 8 years (3 years starting, 5 years traveling) I understand that experience is the defining factor. School will only give you the basics. Once you get a full time scrub position then the real training will start.
Wow. This is good to know. Would you say you can see yourself doing this in the long run? Or would you go back for a nursing or other degree?
I paid 3400$ for an online program currently 30 cases into my externship. Been working in the OR for almost 10 years as a room assistant
Can you worked in a hospital with a certificate and no college courses, Just online program?
Can you please share the school you attended with us.
What school?
@@amysingletary9104the boards now required you have a degree. They used to allow certificates as well but now anymore
Currently a surgical tech and may go to nursing school for more options and the ability to make more money. I'm definitely in the 10th percentile 😅 also we assist the surgeons and APPs (NPs and PAs) not the nurses lol
Any tips to become a surgical tech?
@@Dead_Wolf777 yeah! It requires an associates degree (unless you are grandfathered in which you can’t anymore) so I would get into a college that offers a surgical tech program (it really does not matter at all where, I chose somewhere that was good for my lifestyle being outdoors and close to family). The first year go HARD on anatomy and physiology (I got As in all prerequisites). After the end of your first year you can then apply to a program and it is always a good idea to have experience whether volunteer or jobs in healthcare (me personally, I was a medical assistant). Then the process then becomes nailing your interview. Obviously, every program and school is different so look extremely close at what each program requires. Big takeaways are experience, having a program in the first place (transferring is a nightmare) and honestly be prepared for what personality they are looking for (determined personality and those who can work well under pressure). This job is so fulfilling and bad A so let me know if you have any other questions. I’m now 21 and going into my senior year of college so don’t be afraid to start at any age!
Surgical technician diploma experience 9yrs
They need extra pay for having to put up with doctors and their bad attitudes. Some doctors also think they’re not the problem. It must be the instruments lol.
We haven’t been a technician since 1991.
How much do surgical technologists make in Massachusetts
They don't assist the surgeon, they hand them the instruments and supplies needed to do the surgery, they may hold retractors, but assisting is done by a RNFA, NP or PA.
We can do a lot more than just hold retractors
@@eddysegura1381 yes, I did mention that. But you do not assist in the manner that an actual RNFA, PA or NP does.
Depends on the facility and the case. I have actually assisted in surgeries. If doc needs an extra pair of hands to assist and there aren’t any available I’m it. Assisting during surgical procedures is in the job description. Don’t undersell a scrub.
@@albertlee316 How do you assist? To clamp and ligate vessels, dissect and mobilize tissue, harvest veins, staple bowel back together, drill and cut bone, inject medications?
I have drilled bone per request of the surgeon I have injected meds when they couldn’t do it themselves. I have assisted in vascular with ligation. If there’s only the two of us scrubbed in and the surgeon needs me to assist I assist. It’s not everyday, it’s not everywhere, but I do and have assisted. The most experienced techs are often better assistants than actual assistants.
Yo tell me how to get in the 90th percentile!!! Been doing Cardiothoracics for nearly 6 years and can do anything from Miami method valves to pediatric congenital heart defects. Show me the MONEY!!!
How much do you make doing what you do?
Go be a travel tech 😏
@@KaPaoLor I make about 70k and I’m rounding down a bit. I’m also in school full time finishing my bachelors to pursue being a PA. My job has been incredible and opened many doors, but you eventually reach a point where you get very bored. I may always have a job and be in demand but it just doesn’t pay well enough. I worry that being a PA won’t pay enough either one day.
@@cleavelandcoleman1788 I’ve thought about it, but I would miss my family to much.
@@chrisc4824 Thank you so much for the reply. I wish you the best! 😊
How much do they make in Houston?
~$1,500+/week
It depends on the facility. Go to the med center, that's where you will make the most.
*technologist
Same thing these days
Please can someone tell me can Pakistan work there in Europe as a surgical technologist is there Bann for Pakistani or not please someone reply😢
You are Nationally Certified maybe; Not really sure though.
That's a tough one. It depends on their laws/standards.
For example: I have a degree plus a certification as a scrub in the U.S. However, if I want to work in Europe or Australia, additional schooling or certification may be necessary.
I think you have to be a nurse in Europe.
@@wenonahdenbigh9508 but I am a surgical technician and anesthesia Technologist why they didn't allow me? 😕
Inflation 😂😂😂
