Surgical Technology

At a Glance

Key part of the operating team, assisting surgeons and preparing patients, equipment and the room.

Surgical technologists are members of the surgical team during medical operations. They help prepare the operating room, check and/or assemble equipment, assist the surgeon during the operation, transfer patients to their rooms and clean the operating room. At LLCC, surgical technology students get hands-on experience in an operating room lab. They are prepared with the skills needed to directly enter the workforce. Career options include certified surgical technologists in hospital operating rooms, delivery rooms, ambulatory care centers, physician offices and central sterilizing departments.
