You'll also collaborate closely with nurses, anesthesiologists, and other specialists to ensure patient comfort and safety throughout the process. Educating patients about the procedure, post-procedure care, and necessary follow-up steps is an important aspect of the role. The environment is detail-oriented and fast-paced, often involving several procedures per day and ongoing patient interactions.
