100% Pass Rate for 2021 MCC Surgical Technology Graduates!
I am please to announce that the entire Surgical Technology graduating class
of 2021 passed the National Board of Surgical Technology and Surgical Assisting
Certification Exam. To qualify to sit for this board exam, they must have
participated as a First or Second Scrub in over 120 specific surgical cases and
graduated from an accredited program, such as we have here at MCC. Mary Combs,
the program Clinical Coordinator and instructor, verifies the number and type
of cases the students record in their case logs. She also teaches these
students, in the second year of the program, to prepare to sit for the
certification exam. Thank you, Mary!! We would also like to thank all the
preceptors and surgical services managers/educators for their support of the
surgical technology students during their time at all the various clinical
sites in the Greater Rochester area.
The class took the exam on May 14, 2021 and have been waiting patiently for
verification of graduation to get their results. They are now Certified
Surgical Technologists! Congratulations to these new CST's!
Seely, Mary
