Job Summary
Sarasota Memorial Hospital Cardiovascular Training Program
The Sarasota Memorial Cardiovascular Training Program offers two cardiovascular academic training programs, one in Adult Cardiac Sonography and one in Invasive Cardiovascular Technology. Students may enter only one of the programs as they run concurrently. Both programs are approximately 13 months in duration, beginning and ending in the early fall. The programs include a didactic, hands-on laboratory, and clinical sequence. Both programs are non-degree-granting and provide certificate-level education. The programs are based on clock hours.
The Cardiovascular Training Program’s goals and objectives are to prepare competent entry-level cardiac sonographers and invasive cardiovascular professionals. We focus on the cognitive (knowledge), psychomotor (skills), and affective (behavior) learning domains, ensuring our graduates are well-prepared for the cardiac sonography or invasive cardiovascular technology professions. Students will have the minimum skills, knowledge, and competencies to sit for registry exams in their field of study. Additionally, our students play a crucial role in promoting patient safety, diagnosis, and recovery by working effectively with other allied healthcare professionals, medical staff, patients, and families.

Adult Cardiac Sonography Program
Sonographers Use Ultrasound Machines To Create Images Of The Body Using Sound (at a Level Above What Can Be Heard). There Are Specialties In Sonography Based On What An Individual Will Be Scanning, Including (but Not Limited To)
The Adult Cardiac Sonography Program is affiliated with the Cardiovascular Diagnostic Services (CVD) department at Sarasota Memorial Hospital – Sarasota Campus. Their Echocardiography and Vascular labs led SMH to be one of only four hospitals in Florida to achieve accreditation in Adult Echo, Adult TEE, Pediatric Echo, and Vascular Ultrasound from the Intersocietal Accreditation Commission (IAC). The CVD department also houses the system’s Cardio-Oncology Program, which received a Center of Excellence Silver Designation from the International Cardio-Oncology Society from 2022-2025. Cardiac sonographers in this department can specialize in structural heart procedures, cardio-oncology, and pediatric/congenital echocardiography. There are plans to expand the Adult Cardiac Sonography Program to SMH-Venice in the future.
Invasive Cardiovascular Technology Program
Cardiovascular Technologists Assist Physicians With Invasive Cardiac Procedures Such As Heart Catheterizations, Electrophysiology Studies, Valve Replacements, Device Placements, And More! These Are Performed By Inserting a Small Tube (catheter) Through The Patient's Blood Vessels In The Arm Or Leg, And Then Travels To The Heart. These Procedures Can
The Invasive Cardiovascular Technology Program is affiliated with the Invasive Cardiology department at Sarasota Memorial Hospital – Sarasota Campus. The Invasive Cardiology department houses four cardiac catheterization suites, four electrophysiology suites, two cardioversion/TEE suites, a large patient preparation and recovery area, and a shared hybrid operating room. The Invasive Cardiology department performs a variety of procedures including diagnostic and interventional cardiac catheterizations, structural heart procedures (TAVR, TMVR, TTVR, mitral and tricuspid TEER, LAA occluder placement, interatrial/interventricular occluder placement), and electrophysiology procedures (pulse field ablation, cryoablation, radiofrequency ablation, pacemaker implantation, ICD implantation, cardiac contractility modulation device placement, neuromodulation device placement), and more. There are plans to expand the Invasive Cardiovascular Technology Program to SMH-Venice in the future.
