• Replenish wound care kits and maintain organized “go bags” for efficient daily operations.
• Assist in processing wound care orders in collaboration with the provider and Practice Manager.
• Maintain accurate electronic medical records (EMR) documentation of wound treatments and patient interactions.

Wound Care Coordination & Scheduling:

• Work with the Practice Manager to optimize the daily wound visit and consultation schedule.
• Confirm patient appointments the day before and provide estimated arrival times on the day of the visit.
• Coordinate wound care visits with primary care physicians (PCPs), specialists, and home health providers.
• Ensure all necessary wound care documentation, orders, and medical records are obtained and processed correctly.

Qualifications:

• High School diploma or equivalent required.
• Certified Medical Assistant (CMA), EMT, or Phlebotomy certification required.
• Current BLS (Basic Life Support) Certification required.
• Minimum of 2 years of experience in a medical practice setting, preferably in wound care.
• Experience with EMR systems (Athena preferred).
• Valid driver’s license with a clean driving history.
• Strong clinical assessment, organizational, and multitasking skills.
• Excellent interpersonal and communication abilities.
• Knowledge of medical terminology and office operations, including Microsoft Office.

Schedule:

• Day shift, Monday – Friday.
• Full-time, mobile wound care setting.

Compensation:

• Competitive pay based on experience: $20.00 - $25.00 per hour.
