Travel CT Technologist - $3,028 per week
About the role
The assignment is at a Level II trauma acute care facility in Tacoma, Washington. The radiology department has four GE CT scanners: two for inpatient use, one outpatient scanner connected to the facility, and one located in the emergency department. Patient populations include inpatient, outpatient, and emergent cases, with outpatient volume averaging 12‑14 scans per day, the in‑house procedure machine handling about 10 patients per day, and the ED CT machine averaging roughly 40 scans across all shifts. The facility uses Epic EMR and McKesson PACS. No floating is required outside of the four CT scanners. The night shift runs Monday‑Thursday from 9:00 PM to 7:30 AM, with minimal call requirements, weekend coverage per contract, and holiday coverage in rotation. A radiology supervisor or lead tech is available as a resource except during overnight or weekend shifts, and a radiologist is on‑site during the day and on‑call after hours.
