My client, a small healthcare facility in Coastal WA, about an hour west from Olympia, has a need for a Nuclear Medicine Tech to join their team. The hospital is located on the beautiful Olympic Peninsula of Washington State, twenty miles from the Pacific Ocean. Close to numerous recreational and cultural activities, they enjoy a moderate marine climate with dry, warm summers and mild winters. Their location is ideal for rural living but within a short drive to Olympia, Seattle or Portland.
