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.

  • 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)
