Take the First Step Toward a Rewarding Healthcare Career!

Are you looking for a meaningful way to launch a career in healthcare but keep hitting roadblocks because you lack formal training?

This is your chance to stop searching and start building. At PeaceHealth Southwest Medical Center , we don't just see Patient Transporters; we see the future nurses, techs, and leaders of our Level II Trauma Center . We are actively seeking compassionate, dedicated people to join our inclusive team in this vital role ( $20.53-$30.86 / hour, dependent on experience, terms of collective bargaining agreement, etc). If you want an entry-level position that provides stability, immediate purpose, a clear path for internal growth, and the ability to directly impact a patient’s experience—apply now and take that crucial first step into your healthcare journey.

  • The Role : Part Time Night Shift Patient Transporter
  • Location : PeaceHealth Southwest Medical Center, Vancouver, WA
  • Salary : $20.53-$30.86 / hour, plus applicable shift differential pay.

This position will be scheduled 64 hours every 2 week pay period and follows a rotating schedule :

  • Friday & Saturday : 6 : 30 PM – 7 : 00 AM
  • Sunday & Monday : 8 : 30 PM – 7 : 00 AM
  • Tuesday : Off
  • Wednesday & Thursday : 8 : 30 PM – 7 : 00 AM
  • Friday through Thursday : Off
  • What You'll Be Doing : The Heartbeat of Patient Flow

    Your job is the essential human connection that ensures every patient gets where they need to be, safely and with care. This is a highly active role that keeps our hospital running smoothly.

  • Be a Patient Guide : Safely transport patients throughout the hospital using wheelchairs or stretchers.
  • Provide Comfort : Be present for the patient; use your time during transport to check on their comfort and ease any anxiety.
  • Coordinate Critical Care : Move time-sensitive materials like lab specimens, blood, and equipment between departments.
  • Support the Clinical Team : Help keep patient care areas ready by moving supplies, records, and linen.
  • Maintain Safety : Clean and sanitize transport equipment (like wheelchairs) to maintain infection control standards.
  • Your Impact on Patient Outcomes

    Your role is an absolutely critical, unsung hero of patient safety and satisfaction. Here's how your work makes a measurable difference every shift :

  • Reducing Wait Times : Your efficient and timely transport of patients to surgery, imaging, etc. directly reduces patient wait times and allows clinical staff to start treatment sooner.
  • Improving Patient Experience : The compassionate conversation you have during a transport significantly boosts patient morale and reduces pre-procedure stress, contributing to higher satisfaction scores.
  • Enabling Clinical Action : The swift delivery of critical specimens (like blood or biopsies) to the lab accelerates diagnostic testing, which can be life-saving in a Trauma Center setting.
  • Qualifications and Growth Potential

    This is an entry-level role —no prior healthcare experience is required!

  • Required Certification : Must obtain Basic Life Support (BLS) certification from the American Heart Association or American Red Cross prior to start date.
  • Skills : Must have great customer service and communication skills; basic computer skills are also needed.
  • Growth : We require no degree because we view this role as your first step. We are committed to investing in your long-term career by prioritizing internal promotions to help you advance into new roles.
  • Total Rewards and Our Inclusive Culture

    PeaceHealth is a mission-driven system committed to the overall wellbeing of our caregivers : physical, emotional, financial, social, and spiritual. We offer a competitive and comprehensive total rewards package, including full medical / dental / vision coverage, 403b retirement plan, generous paid time off (PTO), tuition reimbursement, and wellness programs. We are proud to foster an inclusive culture where every voice is heard. This position is represented by a collective bargaining agreement.

    Ready to Launch Your Career in Healthcare?
