@takieshajones
Entry-level Surgical Technologist focused on sterile technique and patient safety.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Surgical Technology graduate dedicated to delivering safe, efficient surgical care through disciplined sterile technique and strong intraoperative support. I recently completed an Associate of Applied Science in Surgical Technology and bring hands-on clinical experience supporting procedures across multiple specialties.
During my clinical rotations, I set up and maintained sterile fields to ensure completeness and accuracy of needed equipment, instruments, and supplies. I prepared surgical devices, assisted healthcare professionals in the operating room, and built dependable communication and teamwork habits while prioritizing patient safety, aseptic practice, and quick response to the surgical team’s needs across General, ENT, Orthopedics, Urology, Gynecology, Neurology, Robotic, and Oral cases.
Beyond the OR, I’ve strengthened my professionalism through leadership and direct patient care. As an Assistant Manager and Supervisor, I managed daily operations, handled customer concerns, ensured safety and compliance, and trained employees—work that aligns with how I show up for patient dignity, confidentiality, and quality service. I also hold Basic Life Support (CPR and AED) certification through the American Heart Association.
