Surgical Recovery Coordinator

SURGICAL RECOVERY COORDINATOR

Interested in a fast-paced, challenging, life-saving working environment that requires travel on private jets to hospitals throughout the western United States? Would you like to make a difference, knowing that you have coordinated sharing the gift of life through organ donation and transplantation? If so, come join our highly motivated surgical organ recovery team! Applicants with a strong operating room background, excellent communication skills, strong task organization abilities, and solid medical knowledge are encouraged to apply.

The Surgical Recovery Coordinator (SRC) primarily functions as our OR circulator. The SRC leads the surgical team, ensuring compliance with various policies and regulations, documenting and charting all organ recovery activities, and performing hands-on procedures as necessary. The SRC also participates in organ preservation and transportation activities and provides machine preservation of kidneys for transplant. You play a critical role in ensuring donated organs for transplant are handled and packaged correctly, with all required documentation to ensure they are available for the designated recipients.

Successful candidates should have solid experience in the OR and participate in the surgery. They should also have solid critical thinking skills, and the ability to work independently. This is a great career for someone who loves working in the OR and wants greater levels of responsibility without giving up the hands-on involvement of assisting in surgery.

We at DonorConnect expect our employees to embody our I CARE+ values of integrity, collaboration, accountability, respect and expertise.
