Can you work as a surgical tech as a locum LPN surgical tech?

A locum LPN surgical tech typically cannot work as a surgical tech because Licensed Practical Nurses (LPNs) are not trained or credentialed to perform surgical technologist duties, which require specific certification and skills. Surgical technologists usually need to complete a specialized program and obtain certification, and LPNs have different scope of practice. However, LPNs may assist in perioperative settings under supervision, but they do not perform the same roles as surgical technologists.
