Ilis brother, Kurt, and a friend, Steve Knight, were discussed career possibilities with the young boy. "Wc were sitting around a campfire and he asked me if I wanted to watch a surgery." Kale said.

Kale kept in touch with Knight and soon heard about an opening for a surgical technician. training was available and surgical technicians dont need a college degree, Gordon said. -- The job is high pressure and sometimes surgeons and nurses arc not very understanding when a mistake is made, she said. Surgical technicians, also called "scrub techs." arc responsible for setting up the surgical instruments, passing the instruments to the surgeon, and for . retraction and suction during the operation. Kale underwent the extensive training two years ago. He spent his summer after his sophomore year at the hospital arriving at 7 a.m. daily, working 40 hours a week without pay. she said. Kale also volunteered time after school during his junior year. The hospital hired him at the end of his junior year. ; "We have a lot of respect for Kale.

The shirt is a traditional "gift" pilots receive after their first solo flight. Kale received his pilot license al 17. , Kate spent many hours studying because he wanted to know exactly what the doctors needed for surgery and how he could help. "It's a harsh environment. You cant make a mistake. My the doctors, nurses and other technicians, were really good to help me." Kale said. Kale assists with all types of surgeries. In a language foreign to laymen. Kale points with a gloved hand to what looks like tweezers and scissors, recites their names and explains what theyre used for. On a table draped with a blue cloth, between 60 to 80 pieces of equipment arc at Kale's fingertips. Gordon said Kale watches the doctor and most of the time he can tell what the doctor needs before he asks for it. That is what a competent surgical technician docs, she said. Kale also notices when the doctor needs more or less light. He moves the lamps for the doctor. I try to outguess them (doctors), but its gional Medical Center.
