    Hello! I am new to this channel. I appreciate you posting this. I'm not so sure of hiring candidates right off the street with no experience. I have researched online hiring platforms and none have stated they would hire with no formal education in the surgical technology field. All stated that the candidate hiring requirements were a degree from a surgical tech program.

    • @fortheloveofsurgery
      @fortheloveofsurgery 24 дня назад

      Hi Sherry! Maybe not literally "right off the street" but some facilities are hiring candidates with no experience and training them on the job. I've seen/heard of this happening with internal staff. Instead of hiring a new graduate, some will hire an already internal employee with no surgical experience.

    Theres a huge shortage of CST's where I work. My employer is currently offering full scholarships to employees to go to ST school and allowing them to work 12 hrs a week while still paying them for 40hrs in exchange for agreeing to work for 2yrs as a CST after graduation. Theyre paying 28/hr. But they are deff NOT hiring people with no training or exp.

      Doing the surgery? No. But until you've been in a situation where the surgical tech is not properly educated/trained and the patient's life is at risk, you won't understand.

    At our hospital they offer the surgical program. We have to interview for the program to get in . I’m an SPD TECH thinking of applying for the program next year. We have a lot of knowledge when it comes to trays and surgical instruments. The benefit of this program is that we dont pay anything out of pocket and we get paid while in training.

With the stipulation ,that you would get your certs etc LATER!! And i was like, I must be tired because that couldn't be true....😮. I also saw another job for phlebotomy but again... They would train you on the job. No experience needed 😮.... This is in Chicago.

    • @fortheloveofsurgery
      @fortheloveofsurgery 24 дня назад

      I partially disagree. There are fundamentals that need to be learned before people walking into an OR. Once those are down, the hands on experience is absolutely necessary. The problem is the OJT cuts way too many corners, from what I have seen.

  • @emmypoole2636
    @emmypoole2636 5 месяцев назад

    Honestly surgical tech school was almost a waste of time. I learned everything I know on the job. Thankfully I went to surgical tech school before you needed an associates. My program from start to getting hired was less than a year. You really want to be a good surgical tech? Go work at a trauma center, you’ll learn WAY more than tech school could ever teach you. All surgical tech school really needs to be is teaching you the instruments, teaching you sterile technique, and doing fake surgeries in lab. Everything else is a waste of time.

I went to school for med assistant and couldn't find a job when moved states so I went back to cna. Health care is crazy these days. LPNs are DONs that's crazy. Facilities with only one RN on staff. That's bonkers!

    • @Aly_2014
      @Aly_2014 3 месяца назад

      I was just about to ask that too. I think she said a certification is valid, but people tend to use the term the wrong way. People will use it interchangeably with either diploma/degree. Hopefully this helps.

After watching your video, I'm not sure I want to do it because I don't think it's fair to make more money than the person who is responsible for training you. As a nurse, I think it is an open door for jealousy and animosity. What do you think?

      They're the same thing. It just depends on the asociación who certifize you who gives you the title.

    @yavonnedawson8712 6 месяцев назад

    I, too, am a traveler. Been teching for close to 20 years now. Back in the day LPNs were given the opportunity for on OJT for only small cases. Boob jobs, carpet tunnels, and minor washouts of feet and things. But recently I worked at a facility that didn't require their techs to be certified (which is a whole other issue in itself) and hired some random person with no medical background. She was by no means an idiot but she was being forced to learn big ortho and spine cases. As well as robots and trauma. She was always carrying her folder which was filld with notes and very eager to learn all for a lesser salary the her coworkers of course. Despite her good efforts. She was very unsafe. It was very hard for her to grasp the idea of the differences between clean and sterile. On that alone she would of been fired in week two. But because the hospital hired her specifically for OJT mistakes are allowed with her. Specimens were tossed, cross contamination for A&P repairs dealing with bowel. Very sad. Facilities like this need to loose their surgery license
