The community is nestled in a lush forested region known as the 100 Valleys of the Umpqua. In many places you’ll find it hard to maintain a healthy work-life/personal-life balance because the pace of one is indistinguishable from the other. Not here. Life never stops here but it slows to an easy welcome pace. A traffic jam means you missed the yellow and have to wait for the next green. A terrible parking space is the one across from the restaurant instead of in front of it. And the three words you may never hear are “Wow that’s expensive.” Easy is the best way to describe life here. Hard-to-beat works too.While you’re busy impacting the healthcare industry we’ll take care of you with benefits that may include health/dental/vision FSA matching retirement plans paid vacation adoption assistance annual bonus eligibility and more!ResponsibilitiesShift: 8am - 4:30pm 4 Days per WeekJob Summary:Under the direction of the Heart Center Supervisor, the Cardiac Sonographer is responsible for the performance of the echocardiographic/doppler examinations of the heart which are used for the diagnosis of cardiovascular disease.
