Surgical Technology Surgical technologists are allied health professionals who are an integral part of the surgical team. Their primary role is to work with surgeons, anesthesiologists, registered nurses, and other surgical technologists in delivering patient care and assuming appropriate responsibilities before, during, and after surgery. Specifically, surgical technologists apply and maintain the principles of sterile technique and safety in the operating room; prepare, handle, sterilize, and care for surgical instruments, supplies, equipment, and medications; set up instrumentation, equipment, and supplies for various surgical cases; apply critical thinking skills to anticipate procedural steps and corresponding instrumentation; and pass surgical instrumentation and supplies to the surgeon. The goal of the Surgical Technology Associate of Applied Science degree program is to prepare competent, entry-level surgical technologists in the cognitive (knowledge), psychomotor (skills), and affective (behavior) learning domains. Graduates of the program will be able to apply fundamental theoretical knowledge in the practice of surgical technology; acquire and evaluate emerging surgical knowledge; effectively and safely manipulate surgical equipment, instruments, and supplies; consistently maintain sterile technique; demonstrate the ability to maintain a stable emotional state, even under stressful conditions, which enables the effective use of reason and good judgment in patient care situations; and demonstrate the formation of a strong sterile conscience. The program has limited enrollment and admits one class each fall. The prerequisite courses listed below must be completed or in progress prior to application for program admission. Prospective students should contact the Surgical Technology Program Director for admission deadlines. Applicants must be in excellent physical health and be able to perform the rigorous physical tasks required of the profession. In addition, candidates must have a stable emotional temperament to be able to function safely and use good judgment under stressful conditions. Drug screening and criminal background checks may be required by clinical affiliates for those persons accepted into the program. Once the student has been accepted, the intensive 11-month surgery core program combines classroom lectures and discussions, laboratory demonstrations with hands-on practice, and supervised clinical experiences in actual patient care settings to provide students with a variety of learning opportunities. Clinical rotations will include experiences outside of Laramie County, and students must be willing and able to travel to attend scheduled clinical assignments. Due to the distance, overnight stays may be necessary. The surgical technology program offers two options for program completion. The traditional on-campus program is offered in Cheyenne, and an online program is offered for students throughout Wyoming. Once accepted into the program, surgery-specific courses require full-time enrollment and begin in August continuing through the following July. The online program consists of four main components: • All prerequisite courses may be taken online through LCCC or at any Wyoming community college and transferred into the program. • Surgical technology core lecture courses are delivered online. Examinations will require a local proctor. • The lab skills courses (90 hours in the fall and 30 hours in the spring) will be scheduled most likely on weekends and will be held at a partnering hospital in Wyoming or on campus in Cheyenne. The location will be determined based on the locations of students in each cohort group. • The clinical rotations will be scheduled at partnering hospitals throughout the state. Students will rotate through several hospitals nearest their home to obtain the required case experience. Travel to clinical sites is required, and overnight stays may be necessary. This program is accredited by the Commission on Accreditation of Allied Health Education Programs (CAAHEP), 1361 Park Street, Clearwater, FL 33756, which allows graduates to take the national certifying examination sponsored by the National Board for Surgical Technology and Surgical Assisting (NBSTSA). DRUG SCREENING AND CRIMINAL BACkGROUND CHECkS At their discretion, clinical sites may require a drug screening and/or a criminal background check prior to allowing students into the clinical setting. (If required, any associated fees will be the responsibility of the student.) Clinical sites may also require random drug testing and/or drug testing for reasonable cause. Testing positive on the drug screening or evidence of tampering with a specimen will disqualify a student from participation from clinical assignment. In addition to drug screening, for the safety of patients and health care workers, child abuse clearance and criminal background checks are required by some agencies prior to a clinical assignment. Certain criminal activity, as evidenced by a criminal background check, may also disqualify a student from clinical participation. Students are advised that the inability to gain clinical education experiences can result in the inability to meet program objectives and outcomes. These circumstances may prevent acceptance into and/or continuance in the program.

78 Theatre The theatre curriculum is designed to expose students to various aspects of Theatre, including theatre history, dramatic literature and the crafts of acting, directing and design/ technology. The program is designed for transfer to a fouryear institution and/or acceptance into acting programs and institutions devoted to the advancement of specific theatre skills. Students interested in a concentration in theatre should complete the General Studies in Fine Arts and Humanities program of study (see page 25) and complete the courses listed below in consultation with an advisor.
