Sentara Internship Jobs in Kentucky (NOW HIRING)

The Interventional Technologist Training Program is designed to develop highly skilled technologists who support a wide range of minimally invasive procedures across vascular, cardiac, body, and neuro specialties. This structured program provides foundational knowledge, hands‑on experience, and guided clinical exposure to prepare individuals for a career in advanced procedural care.

Upon successful on-boarding into the program, participants are hired as Cardiovascular Invasive Technologists. In this role, the technologist begins training to support and assist physicians during diagnostic and interventional procedures while progressively acquiring the advanced skill set required in a modern interventional environment.

A Cardiovascular Invasive Technologist, often referred to as a Cath Lab Technologist, is a healthcare professional who assists physicians during diagnostic and interventional cardiovascular procedures, ensuring accuracy, safety, and high-quality patient care. Working closely with patients, physicians, and the care team, this role utilizes specialized equipment to help diagnose and treat vascular, cardiac, body, and neuro disease. Under the direction of a qualified physician, the technologist performs baseline assessments, monitors patient responses during procedures, and serves as a first assistant for diagnostic and therapeutic interventions.

Through the Interventional Technologist Training Program, new CVITs gain comprehensive experience in the principles of sterile technique, radiation safety, hemodynamic monitoring, image-guided procedures, and patient care before, during, and after interventions. This intentional pathway creates a strong clinical foundation while building competency in increasingly complex minimally invasive procedures.

This 12-month specialized training program is designed to build a strong pipeline of ARRT-certified individuals and prepare them for advanced minimally invasive procedures. This program provides comprehensive didactic education, skills-lab development, and hands‑on training within one of the region’s most robust interventional suites, spanning vascular, body radiology, and neuro interventions. The program schedule is Monday–Thursday from 0730–1700, with on‑call requirements beginning in the second quarter of training. Participants will gain foundational competencies required to safely and confidently assist across multiple interventional modalities.

Upon successful completion, graduates will be prepared to advance into the Interventional Technologist role, performing complex diagnostic, therapeutic, and interventional procedures while supporting patient care, equipment management, and departmental quality initiatives. This program offers a unique opportunity to grow your career, expand your skill set, and join a team committed to excellence in minimally invasive care.
