FMG Physicians for Medical Assistant/"Clinical Specialist"
position.** *Must either have extensive MA experience with
arterial/vascular work, or be an FMG -- Foreign Medical Graduate**
Could be up to 6-10 weeks of travel for training. After that, could
be up to 3 months of travel for additional training and/or cross
coverage at other locations. This, along with our faster pace and
higher performance standards is why we pay so much more than other
comparable jobs.* *MUST SPEAK FLUENT SPANISH*We refer to our
medical assistants as *"Clinical Specialists" (CS's)*, because they
are not "assistants". *We offer extensive, one-on-one training* to
each new Team Member at this position, and train them to a high
level of clinical competence. All new CSs must Qualify at their
respective positions in order to work at a high level, under
supervision. There are four different roles for our Clinical
Specialists. There is the *CS1* (Pre- and Post-Procedure), *CS2*
(Patient Consults), *CS3* (1st Assistant to Physician
Proceduralist) and *CS4* (Procedure Room Circulator). Each CS is a
*valuable member* of the procedure team. A newly hired CS will only
train at ONE of these positions (not all 4 of them). That said, for
star performers, opportunities to train and Qualify at additional
CS positions, potentially for higher pay, do exist.*Our current
needs are for a cross-trained CS1/2:**CS1 Responsibilities** The
CS1s are responsible for patient pre-procedure prep, including:
verifying the Medical Hx, medications, placing IV's, obtaining
baseline vitals and pedal pulses, preparing the groin for access,
and meticulously documenting all information in our EMR.*
Responsible for recovering the patient post-procedure, including:
monitoring vital signs and access site, assuring hemostasis,
obtaining pulses, discharging the patient home, again documenting
all information meticulously in our EMR, and assessing inventory to
verify that clinical supplies related to the procedures are at par
levels.* The CS1 position requires a strong grasp of medical
knowledge, confidence, attention to detail, equanimity (cool under
pressure), and excellent communication and customer service skills
to interact with both patients and family.* Must be able to work in
cooperation with the rest of the Procedure Team including the
Proceduralist Physician, CRNAs, and other Clinical Specialists.*CS2
Responsibilities: ** The CS2 is an integral part of the 3-person
Consult Team. The other two Team Members consist of the NP and the
US tech.* A brief summary of how the consultation flow works: After
the US tech sees the patients and performs the appropriate scans,
the CS2 will begin the patient consultation that will consist of:
Obtaining a detailed H&P, medication list, performing ABIs,
taking vital signs, taking photos of any wounds, and patient
completion of patient charting/documentation.* After patient
interview has been completed, the CS2 must relay all information in
a detailed, but brief manner to the NP that will further highlight
if the patient is overall a possible candidate to proceed with a
PAD procedure/intervention.* Once patient is on board with
procedure and all questions have been answered, the CS2 will
proceed with collecting necessary blood specimen via venipuncture
for further pre-procedural testing.* It is important to be a well
rounded customer-service-driven individual with the ability to
maintain attention to details in a fast-paced environment to avoid
errors and provide the best possible patient experience.All
employees are expected to perform as an integral part of the PADS
