What If Your MRI Career Gave You Thursdays Back?

Most MRI jobs ask what you can give.

This one gives something back.

Imagine wrapping up your day and being home in minutes. No sitting in traffic. No losing an hour of your life staring at brake lights. Just more time for family dinner, a bike ride, a workout, a hike, or simply enjoying your evening while it's still light outside.

At PeaceHealth Longview Radiology in Kelso, Washington, MRI technologists work a schedule that's becoming increasingly rare: Monday through Wednesday, plus Friday. Every Thursday is yours.

And when you're at work, you're doing what you trained for.

You'll support patients across Orthopedics, Neurology, Oncology, Spine and Pain Management, Primary Care, and Emergency follow-up imaging. Every day brings variety, clinical thinking, and the opportunity to help patients finally get answers.

This outpatient imaging center offers a high level of independence. You'll be trusted to use your clinical judgment, adapt exams to patient needs, maintain MRI safety standards, and create an experience that helps patients feel comfortable during what can be an uncertain time.

For technologists who are cross-trained in CT or X-ray, there's additional opportunity to keep multiple skill sets active while supporting continuity of care throughout the department.

What often stands out most about PeaceHealth isn't the equipment or the schedule.

It's the culture.

As a person-first, value-driven, highly trusted organization, PeaceHealth believes caring for caregivers matters just as much as caring for patients. You'll work alongside professionals who respect the expertise, compassion, and judgment you bring into every room and every patient interaction.
