We are offering a specialized Overnight Weekend Shift (Friday through Sunday, 7:00 PM to 7:30 AM) for MRI Technologists. This role is part of our commitment to providing 24/7 diagnostic imaging services to patients of all ages, from newborns to the geriatric population. As an essential employee, you will play a critical role in maintaining our operational continuity during weekend hours.
As an MRI Technologist, you will serve as the primary liaison between patients, licensed independent practitioners, and the support team. Your work integrates scientific knowledge, technical precision, and compassionate care to produce high-quality diagnostic, therapeutic, and research images. You will utilize MRI scanners and power injectors to generate cross-sectional and 3D images, while also assisting with complex interventional and therapeutic procedures.
This position requires more than just technical proficiency; it demands critical thinking and independent professional judgment. You will be responsible for assessing patient conditions, monitoring vital signs, and taking appropriate action in emergency situations to ensure patient safety and successful procedure completion. From preparing patients and administering medications to evaluating image quality and managing equipment service calls, you will own the patient experience before, during, and after every exam.
To join our team, candidates must hold current certification by the American Registry of Radiology Technologist (ARRT) or the Nuclear Medicine Technologist Certification Board (NMTCB), with specific ARRT-MRI certification required. We are seeking individuals with at least one year of previous MRI Technologist experience, preferably within an academic medical center environment.
