The opportunity
Bring your phlebotomy, vaccine-administration and outpatient patient-care experience to a predictable weekday workplace-health clinic. This is a hands-on Medical Assistant role for someone who can deliver excellent clinical support while helping a small clinic stay organized and ready for each patient.
This is not a formal people-management position. Experience helping coordinate patient flow, supplies, referrals or daily clinic readiness is valuable, but a prior lead title is not required.
What you will do
- Perform venipuncture and support accurate specimen collection, labeling, processing, storage and transport.
- Administer vaccines and injections in accordance with written orders, clinical protocols, documented competency and applicable supervision requirements.
- Welcome and prepare patients, obtain vital signs and document relevant intake information.
- Assist with EKGs, point-of-care testing and other routine procedures when trained and authorized.
- Prepare examination areas and maintain a clean, safe clinical environment.
- Enter accurate, timely information in the electronic health record.
- Support patient follow-up, referrals, scheduling and an organized daily patient flow.
- Monitor supplies, medications, expiration dates and equipment.
- Follow infection-control, privacy and safety procedures, escalating clinical or operational concerns promptly.
What you bring
- Completion of a recognized Medical Assistant education or training program that meets applicable California requirements.
- At least three years of recent outpatient clinical experience.
- Strong, current venipuncture and specimen-handling skills, with the ability to perform blood draws confidently.
- Recent vaccine- or injection-administration experience.
- Current BLS or CPR certification.
- Experience with patient intake, vital signs, EKGs, point-of-care testing and routine clinical support.
- Accurate documentation, strong attention to detail and a professional, patient-centered communication style.
- Comfort with an electronic health record and standard office technology.
- Ability to work onsite in San Francisco, CA for the full stated schedule.
Preferred, not required
- CMA, RMA, CCMA, NCMA or another recognized Medical Assistant credential.
- Experience in workplace health, occupational health, primary care, preventive care or a smaller outpatient clinic.
- Experience supporting clinic readiness, inventory, patient flow or referrals.
Clinical scope
Medical Assistants perform permitted technical-support services within their documented education, training and competency. Injections and vaccine administration require appropriate written authorization and the legally required onsite supervision. Medical Assistants do not independently assess, diagnose or make treatment decisions. Licensed clinicians retain responsibility for clinical decisions and supervision.
