MA Nampa Wound Healing Clinic Full-Time Days

Medical Assistant Position

At Saint Alphonsus Health System, we are looking for people who are living out their calling. We want you to be passionate about coming to work, and challenged to achieve your potential. Living by these virtues, we pride ourselves on exceptional service and the highest quality of care. The Wound and Hyperbaric Medicine clinic is now hiring for a personable and motivated Medical Assistant for our clinic located on the Nampa Medical Center campus!

As an MA in the Wound clinic, you will work in a great care team environment with multiple providers, MAs, RNs, and front office staff. At Saint Alphonsus we take a comprehensive and personalized approach in planning each patient's treatment since most non-healing, chronic wounds involve complications. We work with our patients to determine, manage and treat any underlying medical conditions, which will help them to heal faster and more completely. We help patients that have wounds and are dealing with poor blood circulation from diabetes, severe burns or peripheral vascular disease, as a simple cut or scrape can result in serious infection requiring advance wound care therapies, including Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) for patients who have non-healing or complex wounds and other diseases that benefit from pressurized oxygen delivery.

Our MAs in the Wound Healing clinic work with all providers at the clinic, supporting them with rooming patients, chart prep, working hands on with wound care and minor procedures, and working closely with the providers during appointments. This position will not perform vaccinations, injections, or much phlebotomy at this time. An ideal candidate would be someone who has the desire and motivation to learn, who wants to work in a strong team environment, and is highly reliable. This position will primarily work in Nampa, but may occasionally cover at the Nampa clinic and possibly Ontario.
