Jill Davis, Surgical Technology
Jill Davis, Program Director for the Surgical Technology program at Missoula College, has not only advanced the surgical technology profession but also elevated the visibility and reputation of Missoula College on a national scale.
Her recently published work was cited and utilized in shaping policy at the Mayo Clinic, resulting in certification of surgical technologists becoming a requirement across all Mayo Clinic hospitals nationwide. This policy advancement marks a historic step forward for the profession and reflects the level of expertise Jill brings to both her scholarship and leadership.
Further underscoring her impact, Jill’s work was presented and discussed at the Association of Surgical Technologists National Conference in Orlando this past June, where it was highlighted among the most influential advancements in the field. The national recognition of her research illustrates the far-reaching influence of her contributions, from the classroom to the highest levels of healthcare policy.
