According to the US Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics, Occupational Outlook Handbook (2004-2005 edition - http://stats.bls.gov/oco/ocos106.htm), the demand for surgical technologists is expected to increase as the number of surgical procedures grows. In 2000, there were approximately 71,000 surgical technologists. The employment rate of surgical technologists is expected to grow faster than average (an increase of 21-35 percent) through the year 2010. The volume of surgical procedures is expected to increase as the population grows and ages.

It is Latin for "Patient First" a motto for Surgical Technologists.
Average salary is around 34000 a year.
The average yearly salary of a surgical technologist in Florida is $39,420 per year. The average hourly rate is $18.95 per hour.
Most surgical technologists work a regular 40-hour week, although they may be on call or work nights, weekends, and holidays on a rotating basis.
Surgical technologists, also called operating room technicians, assist in surgical operations. They prepare operating rooms, arrange equipment, and help doctors and nurses during surgeries.
The simple answer is no. Surgical Technologists set up the sterile field before an operation, they pass instruments to surgeons during operations, and they serve as the surgeons' first assistant if a surgical resident is not observing the procedure.
Surgical Technology might be a good fit for you if you enjoy science and want to work in a hospital operating room. Surgical Technologists work under the direct supervision of a physician or registered nurse as part of a healthcare team.
