• Support providers and clinical staff during splinting, bandaging, and minor procedures
• Help prepare rooms, support triage flow, assist with referrals, and contribute to efficient patient movement through the clinic

Front Desk and Patient Access

• Greet patients warmly and help create a supportive, welcoming experience
• Support front desk and registration workflows as needed, including patient communication and basic administrative tasks
• Help maintain accurate documentation and patient confidentiality in the electronic medical record

Clinic Operations and Safety

• Help maintain a clean, organized, and safe clinical environment
• Work collaboratively with team members across clinic functions to support daily operations
• Uphold Mercy Urgent Care’s mission, values, professionalism, and patient‑first service standards in all interactions

Qualifications:

• Current enrollment in a certified Radiologic Technology program required
• Strong communication skills and comfort working with patients in a fast‑paced setting
• Willingness and ability to cross‑train in clinical support and front desk duties
• Ability to stay organized, manage multiple tasks, and maintain attention to detail
• Knowledge of HIPAA standards and commitment to patient confidentiality
• Physical ability to perform medium work, including standing for extended periods and lifting up to 50lbs, with reasonable accommodations as needed

What We’re Looking For:

• Compassionate, patient-centered professionals who treat every patient with dignity and respect
• Team players with a “no job is beneath me” mindset who willingly jump in where needed
• Eager learners who want to grow across imaging, clinical support, and front desk functions
• Calm, adaptable professionals who work well in a fast‑paced environment
