Operating Room Technician

Duties and Responsibilities: Operating room technicians are also called surgical technicians or surgical technologists.  They assist in preparing operating rooms for surgery.  They are responsible for having surgical instruments, sterile bandages and linens, needed fluids, and other equipment ready for the operation.

Salary: $16,000-$22,000

Education: A high school diploma or GED certificate is required.  Many vocational and junior colleges offer programs in operating room technology, and training may also be taken at large hospitals.

Reflection: Do you think you would like to be one? Why? Why not?
I wouldn't like to be one because I get grossed out easily and if I ever had to do surgery I would be scared and nervous.
