Introduction
Step into a pivotal role as a Surgical Tech in Havre, Montana, starting 01/07/2026 for a multi-week assignment that promises meaningful, hands-on impact in the OR. You’ll be at the heart of patient care, ensuring sterile technique, accurate instrument handling, and seamless teamwork that supports surgeons, nurses, and patients alike. Your precision will safeguard procedures, protect vulnerable patients, and contribute to outcomes that families will remember. This opportunity blends professional challenge with real-world purpose, in a setting where skilled hands and calm focus are valued every day. Montana’s vast skies and wide-open spaces reflect the pace of this role—steady, dependable, and deeply rewarding. As you prepare to embark, imagine the beauty of the state’s outdoors—glacial vistas, rugged mountains, and timeless plains—where evenings after shifts offer chances to unwind, regroup, and recharge. In Montana, every shift can be more than work—it can be a gateway to new experiences and personal growth.
Location Benefits
Havre sits along the historic Hi-Line, offering a welcoming community feel with access to essential amenities, nearby natural wonders, and a slower pace that supports work–life balance. As a Surgical Tech with our program, you’ll have the opportunity to contribute directly in Havre while also benefiting from the flexible option to be placed at other U.S. locations as needed, broadening your clinical exposure and career mobility. Nestled near rolling prairies and mountain silhouettes, Havre provides a backdrop that makes long shifts feel purposeful rather than monotonous. You’ll develop professional relationships with a diverse group of healthcare professionals and gain exposure to a range of surgical cases, all while enjoying the security of guaranteed hours and predictable weekly compensation. Alongside this, the broader travel program offers housing assistance and a comprehensive support network, making it easier to settle into new cities and adapt quickly. The combination of a supportive team, stable schedule, and opportunities to extend your stay—whether in Havre or a new destination—presents a compelling pathway to broaden your clinical competencies and accelerate advancement in the surgical tech specialty.
Role Specifics and Benefits
In this role, you’ll be a critical member of the surgical team, assisting during procedures with scrubbing, gowning, instrument handling, suction, and meticulous instrument counts to prevent never events. You’ll collaborate closely with surgeons, circulators, and nurses to anticipate needs, prepare sterile fields, and ensure all equipment is ready and functioning. You’ll contribute to room turnover, maintain safety protocols, and support patient positioning and documentation as required. The position emphasizes growth within the surgical tech discipline: opportunities to expand responsibilities into enhanced room setup, instrument tracking, process improvement, and potential pathways toward lead tech roles or sterile processing coordination. Compensation reflects the value of your expertise, with a weekly pay range of $1,436-$1,488 and guaranteed 40 hours. The role also features a signing-style recognition bonus, housing assistance, and the option for contract extensions, allowing you to deepen your experience across multiple facilities and specialties. Comprehensive support is available 24/7 while you’re traveling with the company, ensuring you have access to guidance, scheduling coordination, credentialing assistance, and rapid problem-solving whenever you need it. The program emphasizes structured orientation, ongoing mentorship, and access to continuing education resources so you can stay current with best practices in sterile technique, instrument care, and perioperative safety. While every assignment can present unique cases, you’ll have the backing of a robust operations team that helps you navigate different facilities, patient populations, and procedural protocols with confidence and professionalism. Please note that the hours and pay rates listed are estimates and may vary; final compensation packages and guaranteed hours will be confirmed during the hiring process. Additionally, you’ll have the option to extend assignments beyond the initial period, providing continuity for both you and the facilities you support.
