About The Position

The Travel Radiology Technologist is responsible for performing diagnostic imaging procedures using mobile radiographic equipment.

Our technologists cover an assigned territory and travel to various facilities to provide diagnostic imaging services, including skilled nursing facilities, long-term acute care, rehab hospitals, assisted living, and patient homes, to provide essential imaging services. This role will go where the staffing support and imaging needs are. Instead of having an assigned territory, this technologist will be expected to cover multiple territories, states, and work any hours/schedule needed to provide support for that imaging team. Schedule flexibility and availability to travel frequently are required. The technician will ensure high-quality images are captured while delivering exceptional patient care and maintaining strict adherence to safety standards.
