X-Ray Technologist - Full Time

X-Ray Technologist (XRT) - Full-Time

More than taking X-rays. Be part of the entire patient care experience.

About the Role

At Carbon Health, our X-Ray Technologists play an important role in delivering exceptional urgent care. This is more than a traditional imaging position. As a Full-Time X-Ray Technologist (XRT), you'll combine your radiologic expertise with hands-on clinical support, becoming an integral part of the patient's care journey.

Unlike imaging-only roles, you'll have the opportunity to work with patients throughout their visit. From performing diagnostic X-rays and preparing images for radiology review to assisting with EKGs, obtaining vital signs, fitting crutches, and supporting other clinical procedures, your work will directly contribute to patient care and treatment decisions.

You'll also take ownership of the imaging workflow at your clinic, ensuring image quality, radiation safety, equipment readiness, and smooth daily operations. While you'll often be the primary imaging resource onsite, you'll have access to remote support from our X-ray leadership team, IT, and RapidRad when needed.

This role is ideal for an X-Ray Technologist who enjoys variety, values independence, and wants to be more involved in patient care than a traditional imaging-only position allows.

Compensation & Schedule

• Compensation: $30 - $40 per hour.
• Employment Type: Full-Time.
• Schedule: 12 hour shifts. 3 days a week with alternating weekends.

Be Part of the Entire Patient Care Journey

Your role doesn't end after taking an X-ray. You'll have the opportunity to see how imaging results contribute to providers' clinical decisions and help patients move forward with their treatment plans. You'll be involved in different stages of the visit, from imaging to hands-on clinical support.

Enjoy Variety Beyond Traditional Imaging

Every day brings something different. In addition to performing X-rays, you'll support other clinical activities such as obtaining vital signs, performing EKGs, assisting with patient treatments, fitting crutches, and helping with basic splinting.

Take Ownership and Work Independently

You'll often be the primary imaging resource at your clinic, giving you the opportunity to take ownership of image quality, radiation safety, equipment readiness, and the overall imaging workflow. You'll have remote support available from X-ray leadership, IT, and RapidRad whenever needed.
