  • Collaborative and willing to support both doctors and teammates
  • Someone who enjoys being part of a close-knit, team-oriented hospital

  • Anesthesia induction, monitoring, and recovery
  • Surgical and dental support
  • Venipuncture and IV catheter placement
  • Laboratory and diagnostic testing
  • Radiology and patient positioning
  • Medication administration
  • Patient assessments and nursing care
  • Client education and communication
  • Supporting and partnering with our doctors
  • Helping guide workflow and serving as a resource for the broader support team

Compensation & Benefits

  • Compensation: $24–$28/hour, depending on experience
  • Schedule: Four set days per week, Tuesday–Friday, with a rotating Saturday schedule
  • Full-time LVT opportunity, with an additional part-time LVT opening
  • Medical, dental, and vision insurance
  • Paid time off
  • 401(k)
  • Continuing education support
  • Employee pet discounts
