Job description

Gain real-world experience that prepares you for the challenges of the fast-paced medical field. Become an ED scribe today.

Scribes are active and valuable members of their healthcare teams, providing real-time charting for physicians by shadowing them throughout their shifts and performing a variety of helpful tasks. As a scribe, you’ll gain rare clinical experiences that help you grow as a person and as a professional.

Common duties include:

  • Recording the patient’s history and chief complaints
  • Transcribing physical exams
  • Recording diagnostic test results
  • Preparing plans for follow-up care

Full-time scribes work 16-20 shifts per month, or about 4-5 shifts per week. Shifts are generally 8-10 hours long, but this may vary depending upon location.

Each shift, you’ll be assigned a doctor or physician assistant to work alongside. This means you’re in the room during each evaluation, documenting directly from the patient and provider conversation. And that makes you a valuable part of the healthcare revolution and the patient experience.

Qualifications:

  • Highly motivated and experience-driven
  • Pre-health track (pre-med, pre-PA, pre-nursing) preferred
  • At least 18 years old and sophomore status or higher
  • Preferred GPA of 2.8+

  • Proficient in English; secondary languages required at some locations

Requirements:

  • Follow and observe a physician for extended periods of time
  • Lift approximately 25 pounds
  • Handle a stressful and fast-paced environment
  • Read, write and comprehend through listening
  • Speak fluent English
  • Operate a computer and/or laptop through proficient typing, clicking and viewing a monitor for extended periods
