Job description

Student & Campus Life (SCL) inspires transformation in all Cornell students on their journey of individual, academic and personal evolution. Our division is comprised of leading student affairs experts who support our campus on pressing student life matters including public service, health, wellbeing, connection and belonging, residential living, food services, sports, recreation, career services, and student activities and organizations including sorority and fraternity life. We provide support and services to roughly 25,000 undergraduate, graduate, and professional students on multiple campuses in the U.S. and abroad.

Cornell Health's more than 200 employees collaborate to provide integrated and culturally-sensitive mental health, medical, health promotion, public health, student accommodations, and occupational medicine care and services. Dually focused on holistic health of Cornell students and well-being of the larger campus community, the unit supports readiness to learn, to participate fully in the Cornell experience, and to achieve academic, work, and life success. Cornell Health is nationally recognized for innovation and leadership, and is committed to an ongoing journey toward integrated, cost-effective, and community-based services and campus health initiatives.

Cornell Health’s Medical Services is a collaborative, vibrant, innovative, inter-professional department which provides holistic clinical care to address students’ biopsychosocial needs. Working collaboratively with other Cornell Health departments, medical staff aspire to a data-driven approach to provide high-quality, accessible, cost-effective, culturally-sensitive, and developmentally-appropriate care and services to Cornell’s student population, meeting the routine and urgent needs of patients.

Radiological Technologists (RadTech) are responsible for performing diagnosticradiology exams on patients referred by Cornell Health clinicians and off-site physicians while complying with all Radiation Safety Standards (ALARA- As Low As Reasonably Achievable). Radiology Technologist positions at Cornell Health are considered part of a larger health care team serving the medical needs of the Cornell University Community. As such, they are expected to independently respond to individuals’ concerns regarding Radiology matters and answer questions from patients and health services staff. These positions perform all duties with a constant sense of service to both internal customers (staff and colleagues) and external customers (patients), comply with current NYS, ARRT and EH&S regulations, and participate in continuing education to maintain a current understanding of equipment and procedures.

Please note: This is a part-time, 20 hours per week position and is not eligible for visa sponsorship.

• Collaborative and attitudinal skills that foster enthusiasm, professional and personal growth, cooperation, mutually respectful communication, flexibility, initiative and adaptability.
  
  

While position responsibilities vary, every member of our community is expected to foster a culture of belonging and a healthy work environment by communicating across differences; being cooperative, collaborative, open, and welcoming; showing respect, compassion, and empathy; engaging and supporting others regardless of background or perspective; speaking up when others are being excluded or treated inappropriately; and supporting work/life integration of oneself and others.
