Medical Assistant (Certified) (Palm Desert)

Vacancy expired!

Palm Desert Psychiatry (PDP) is a new branch from CCBH-SLO in Coachella Valley. Our new office is located at El Paseo. Our Medical Director, Pedro Guimaraes MD, PhD is starting to develop the new branch. We are starting initially opening on Fridays to see patients. Our plan is to extend, in near future, to a full-time clinic, with the addition of more clinical staff and staff to support the work of the clinic. CCBH in San Luis Obispo County started as a small two people clinic, a psychiatrist and a nurse, to become over a decade one of the most important private provider of psychiatric care in the SLO County. We have the goal to repeat the same achievement at Coachella Valley. We provide a careful and dedicated psychiatric care, to the best of the practice, with the support of a multidisciplinary team.

We are looking for a bilingual (Spanish and English speaking) Compassionate, Caring, and Detail Oriented Medical Assistant to help us with the development of PDP. As part of the CCBH group you will be joining a multidisciplinary team that has a goal to provide exceptional, high quality psychiatric care to adolescent and adult community population. In conjunction with the psychiatrist, you will be supporting the management of the psychiatric care of patients, both from a medical and psychological perspective. You will help to provide assessment, medication management, and facilitate the engagement of the patient in psycho-therapeutic/skill building interventions and provide education to the patient and family when required. You will help to establish and maintain communication with other health care providers to promote consistency, continuity of care, and to ensure operational efficiency and effectiveness.

Experience in mental health is a plus, but we will offer training and education to recent graduates or to a registered nurse without much experience in mental health. We are looking for a nurse that is interested to develop their knowledge in psychiatry, or that already having the knowledge is looking to apply their skills to the benefit of our patients.

Although this will be a one-day a week job at the beginning, we believe that in short term the position will grow to a part-time and eventually to a full-time job.

For further information about this position, please contact us through email. Please send a resume, your plans for future and your expectations to become a staff on this new clinic!

Required Qualifications:

- At least one year of experience

- EMR Experience (MUST HAVE AND ABLE TO LEARN A NEW ONE)

We are looking forward to hearing from you!
