We are looking for a Patient Support Staff to assist our patients at their doctors appointment. Because we are a mobile clinic, employees must have their own reliable transportation and a valid drivers license. The hours for this position are part time, probably around 10-15 hours per week with a good possibility of increasing hours as we grow our footprint in the state of WV. Position is travel intensive, driving times of 1-2 hours each way on clinic days but could possibly further than that. Travel time is all paid at your hourly rate. All gas will be paid for by the company. Patient Support responsibilities include traveling to location to meet with our nurse, arriving 30 minutes prior to first scheduled patient, and managing the Vivitrol medication, supplies, and equipment. We dress in casual street clothes on location. To be successful in this role, you should be an excellent communicator who’s able to earn our clients’ trust. You will be trained on using the EMR software along with our procedures. To get a glimpse of PRS, please look up our website at www.prs-cares.com.
