Four days off every week.

That's the first thing most MRI technologists notice about this position. Work Friday through Sunday nights and enjoy Monday through Thursday off, every week. Whether your priority is family, travel, outdoor recreation, continuing education, or simply more time to yourself, this schedule creates flexibility that's difficult to find in healthcare.

At PeaceHealth Southwest Medical Center in Vancouver, Washington, you'll perform meaningful MRI work in a hospital environment where your expertise matters. Using Siemens technology, you'll combine technical skill, clinical judgment, and compassionate patient care to help clinicians answer critical diagnostic questions.

PeaceHealth is a Person-First, Value-Driven, Highly Trusted organization that understands exceptional patient care starts with supporting caregivers. If you're looking for a role that offers both professional fulfillment and more life outside of work, this one deserves a closer look.

Why You'll Love This Role

• Four days off every week while maintaining a full-time position.
• Additional earnings through evening, night, and weekend differentials.
• Practice meaningful hospital-based MRI where your clinical expertise makes a difference.
• Work with Siemens MRI technology in a collaborative imaging environment.
• Hiring bonus and relocation assistance may be available to support your transition.

What Your Nights Could Look Like

You arrive as the evening winds down and prepare for a focused shift ahead.

You review prior imaging, patient history, and relevant clinical information. You help nervous patients feel at ease, adapt exams when circumstances change, and use your expertise to capture high-quality diagnostic images that help clinicians make important decisions.

You aren't simply following a checklist. You're applying critical thinking, technical skill, patient care, and clinical judgment throughout every shift.

Who Thrives Here

• Enjoys a higher level of independence and professional trust.
• Appreciates having large blocks of personal time outside of work.
• Stays calm and focused when unexpected situations arise.
• Takes pride in producing exceptional image quality.
• Believes great patient care starts with treating people with dignity and compassion.

Why You'll Love Living in Vancouver, Washington

Vancouver offers something many healthcare professionals spend years searching for: options.

You can enjoy a more manageable commute and lower congestion than many larger metro areas while remaining minutes from Portland. Spend your days off exploring the Columbia River waterfront, hiking nearby trails, visiting the Oregon coast, heading into the mountains, or simply enjoying the flexibility that comes with four consecutive weekdays off.

It's a community where many caregivers discover a better balance between career and personal life.

That's not a perk. That's a lifestyle.
