Job Description & Requirements
MRI Technologist - (MRI Tech)
StartDate: ASAP Available Shifts: 12 D Pay Rate: $2297.00 - $2367.00

This MRI Technologist contract offers an 8-week opportunity in Springfield, Ohio, working across both a regional hospital and an outpatient imaging center. Springfield is a welcoming Midwestern community with a small-city feel and easy access to larger metros like Dayton and Columbus. The area offers a low cost of living, historic neighborhoods, local breweries and restaurants, and a variety of outdoor attractions including parks, bike trails, and nearby lakes. It’s a great fit if you appreciate a quieter, affordable place to live while still being close to major city amenities, airports, and entertainment. You will be based primarily at the hospital MRI department, with regular floating to an outpatient imaging center within the same city. The system is a growing regional healthcare hub that emphasizes quality imaging, patient-centered care, and collaboration across departments. Technologists here gain solid, résumé-building experience with GE MRI equipment, Epic EHR, and GE/Change PACS in both inpatient and outpatient settings. The MRI department operates 2 GE 1.5T closed MRI systems—1 at the hospital and 1 at the outpatient center. The combined average daily volume is approximately 22 exams, giving you steady but manageable workflow throughout the day. You will be working with closed-bore GE magnets, focusing on a broad mix of studies including neuro, MSK, spine, body, and possible vascular or contrast-enhanced exams depending on physician orders and patient mix. This position is scheduled for Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday shifts from 0630 to 1900. Every Thursday, you will also provide night call coverage from 1900 to 0700. During the assignment, you will take one or two weekends of call, with specific dates coordinated according to your start date. Weekend call includes working on-site Saturday 0800 to noon, then being on call from Saturday noon through Sunday 1900. This schedule offers extended days with concentrated work, leaving other weekdays available for rest, personal activities, or exploring Springfield and the surrounding region. As an MRI Technologist in this role, you will: Perform high-quality MRI exams on GE 1.5T closed magnets at both hospital and outpatient sites Screen patients thoroughly for MRI safety, contrast use, and potential contraindications Start IVs and administer gadolinium-based contrast agents according to protocol and policy Work closely with radiologists, nurses, and fellow technologists to prioritize cases and manage daily workflow Operate GE MRI consoles and related imaging software, ensuring proper patient positioning, coil selection, and protocol adherence Utilize Epic EHR for orders, documentation, and communication, and Change/GE PACS for image management Provide compassionate, clear communication to patients, including those anxious or uncomfortable in the MRI environment Follow all MRI safety policies for patients, staff, and visitors, including Zone restrictions and screening procedures Assist with patient transfers and positioning, ensuring attention to comfort and safety, especially for those with limited mobility Contribute to maintaining a clean, organized, and efficient MRI environment across both practice locations The environment is supportive and collaborative, with a focus on maintaining steady throughput while keeping quality and patient care as top priorities. Because you will float between a hospital MRI and an outpatient center, you will see a variety of patient types and case complexity—from outpatients and scheduled cases to more urgent hospital-based exams. This diversity offers valuable experience that can strengthen your skills and your résumé. Technologists who enjoy autonomy, varied settings, and strong coordination with radiologists and nursing teams will find this assignment particularly appealing. You will have the opportunity to refine your skills with GE 1.5T technology, work within Epic and PACS systems, and manage a consistent but reasonable workload. The mix of a regional medical center and outpatient clinic also provides a good balance between higher-acuity and scheduled outpatient imaging. If you prefer concise, technologist-focused roles, this MRI Technologist assignment in Springfield offers a targeted opportunity to build your MRI experience, particularly with GE systems and Epic, in a community that values work-life balance and provides easy access to both local charm and larger-city amenities.
