Gulf Coast Children’s Clinic/ Express Employment: 12/10/12-6/8/13
As a Medical Assistant, I took patient vitals, including blood pressure, height, length and weight. Depending on the reason for the visit, the medical assistant may ask the patient for a urine sample. After vitals are complete, the patient is escorted into an examination room where a brief history is taken. The medical assistant will ask about the reason for the visit and collect symptom information for the patient chart. If the patient is visiting the doctor for vaccinations, the pediatric medical assistant will visit the room after the doctor talks with the patient and parent. The doctor writes orders for specific vaccinations. Pediatric medical assistants give the patient vaccinations and record the location of injection, lot number, vaccination name and method of injection. This information is then recorded on the patient vaccination record. Between patients, back office medical assistants clean, disinfect and prepare rooms for the next patient.
ADDITIONAL SKILLS
Special duties may include assisting the doctor with circumcisions, rapid strep tests, draw blood and administer medications ordered by the pediatrician
