Did you know that today more people than ever require health care services? This means that there are more career opportunities in the health care industry than ever before.

Surgical Technologists (also called surgical techs, operating room technicians, and OR techs) assist in surgical operations, preparing operating rooms and assisting surgeons, nurses, and physicians before and during surgical procedures.

Advances in medical technology have made surgery safer, and more operations are being done to treat various illnesses and injuries. Also, the number of individuals who have access to health insurance is expected to continue to increase because of federal health insurance reform, which should, in turn, lead to increased demand for surgical services. As a result, there is an increasing need for trained Surgical Technologists.

The aging of the large Baby Boomer generation is also expected to increase Surgical Technologists' need because older people usually require more operations. Moreover, as these individuals age, they may be more willing than those in previous generations to seek medical treatment to improve their quality of life. For example, an individual may decide to have a knee replacement operation to maintain an active lifestyle.
