Job description

About the Migrant Farmworker Program

Farmworkers perform difficult labor and are in the fields from early morning until late evening, sometimes seven days a week. Such a schedule does not facilitate access to health care services. There are also language barriers and transportation issues. Health care clinics are scheduled in locations where farmworkers are working and living, during the hours when workers are available for services. In these locations, workers receive vital exams such as blood pressure, temperature, height and weight, and blood profiling to check for anemia, cholesterol, and diabetes. All patients are able to have a complete physical exam.

Role Details

• Hours: as needed including some evenings & weekends; 8-10 hours per week to start with opportunities to pick up more
• Sees an average of 12-18 patients per day
