Job description

We are seeking a skilled, adaptable, and patient-focused PRN EMT to join our clinical support team for the winter season. This is a versatile hybrid role combining clinical EMT/Medical Assistant responsibilities with front-desk registration and administrative support.

Whether you are triaging a ski injury in the back or greeting patients and verifying insurance at the front desk, you will play a critical role in keeping clinic flow smooth during peak seasonal surges.

Clinical Duties (EMT / Medical Assistant)

• Patient Intake & Triage: Room patients promptly, obtain and document accurate vital signs, chief complaints, allergies, and medical histories in the Electronic Medical Record (EMR).
• Clinical Procedures & Support: Assist providers with urgent care procedures, including wound care, laceration repair setups, splinting/orthopedic bracing, EKGs, nebulizer treatments, and point-of-care lab testing (e.g., strep, flu, COVID, urinalysis).
• Infection Control & Readiness: Clean, sanitize, and restock exam rooms between patients, sterilize medical instruments, and maintain clinical inventory.

Front Desk & Registration Duties

• Check-In & Registration: Greet walk-in patients warmly, verify photo IDs and demographics, enter insurance details accurately into the EMR, and ensure intake forms are completed.
• Financial Collections: Verify insurance eligibility and collect copays, coinsurance, deductibles, and self-pay balances at the time of service.
• Communications: Answer multi-line clinic phones, respond to patient emails, and relay messages accurately between the front desk and clinical team.

Qualifications & Requirements

• Certification: Current, active Colorado EMT certification (or NREMT eligible for immediate Colorado state certification) required.
• Life Support: Current Basic Life Support (BLS) / CPR certification required.
• Clinical & Customer Service Skills: Strong assessment and hands‑on patient care skills paired with a warm, calm, and empathetic demeanor—especially when assisting injured or anxious patients during busy periods.
• Adaptability: Comfort seamlessly transitioning between clinical back‑office tasks and front‑desk administrative duties in a high‑volume walk‑in setting.
• Technical Aptitude: Strong attention to detail with computer systems; prior experience with EMRs and medical insurance verification is a plus.
• Availability: Ability to pick up PRN shifts as needed, including weekends and holidays during peak ski season, with reliable transportation in winter mountain weather.

Benefits & Perks

• Competitive hourly compensation ($[XX.XX] – $[XX.XX]/hour)
• Flexible PRN scheduling ideal for balancing with ski patrol, EMS, or mountain lifestyles
• Paid Sick Leave accrued in accordance with the Colorado Healthy Families and Workplaces Act (HFWA)
• [Insert any additional perks, e.g., Employee housing options, ski pass stipend, or potential to transition to permanent/part‑time status]
