Legacy Meridian Park Medical Center is the South Metro area's full-service medical center, offering the friendly feel of a community hospital combined with the advanced skill and services of a larger facility. Our specialties include stroke care, chest pain management, minimally invasive and robotic surgery, cancer care, orthopedic and total joint surgery, as well as a dedicated birth center and breast health center.
As a CT Technologist within the Legacy community, your role extends far beyond performing imaging procedures. You are the calm presence that eases patient anxiety, using your expert knowledge of the human body to ensure patient safety and contribute to the best possible outcomes. Your work is a vital part of making life better for others.
In this position, you will perform imaging procedures according to physician's orders, utilizing your judgment regarding exposure factors, imaging techniques, and patient treatment. You will be responsible for providing quality images with accuracy and efficiency, positioning patients according to department procedures, and operating imaging equipment to ensure minimal repeat rates. Your day will involve processing and presenting images to radiologists for diagnosis, assisting with patient transport, and ensuring complete documentation of all pertinent information.
Patient care and safety are paramount. You will protect patients and others by adhering to radiation safety standards and practicing universal precautions. You will communicate effectively with neonate, pediatric, adolescent, adult, and geriatric patients, starting IVs and administering medications under the direction of a Licensed Independent Practitioner (LIP) when necessary. Additionally, you will maintain professional behavior, educating patients and families about exams, handling stressful situations with a positive outlook, and taking the initiative to stay current in your education.
