Sterile Processing Technician Certification

Just received confirmation that, for those who desire the Sterile Processing Technician Certification:

Should this class be completed, the Program Coordinator assigns extra points for one the very limited 18 seats available once per year for the SURG Tech degree. 

To be clear, it is not a recommendation to take it prior, it costs $1,920.  Not covered by financial aid, but might be some monies in WDCE.

According to Professor Harges, jobs that pay well also.

Health Science - Summer 2023 Updates

 

1. Pre-nursing students need to take BIOL 213 + L Summer I if AP2 more than five years old to meet their August 1 deadline!
2. This is because BIOL 228 isn’t offered then.
3. Pre-HIM or Medical Coder students can apply to a second deadline of June 15.
4. Our Polysomnography ( POSM ) program will not be offered in the future.  Website says suspended.  It’s official, no more, from Dean Monique Davis when I inquired today.  Had a student interested.
5. Surg Tech now accepts 20 students, hoping to return to 30 next year.

• SURG accepted 20 students this year.  They hope to get back up to 30.
