Clinical Opportunity: Harriet Tubman Women's Clinic

The HTWC leadership team is currently looking to onboard four clinical Undergraduate Coordinators. We are switching up the make-up of our undergraduate clinical volunteer team such that those who we onboard now and in the future serve as both MAs and as a coordinator of a specific aspect of MA duties.

Each Undergraduate Coordinator position thus entails being a Medical Assistant (MA) on the HTWC team AND fulfilling a distinct set of leadership responsibilities (described in detail later) that are specific to each coordinator role. MA training will be done on-site for each role (from March-August 2023), so an MA certification is not necessary in order to apply. Accordingly, each incoming Coordinator will also be trained in their specific leadership roles (from August-January 2023) before being expected to carry them out on their own.
NOTE: Logistical requirements for all coordinator positions include the following: 
  1. You must be in Atlanta and available to serve in your role from March 2023 - end of December 2025 (2.5 year commitment!). Summers are optional with the exception of this upcoming summer (May 2023 - end of August 2023)during which you must be able to complete training and come to the clinic in-person to do so.
  1. You must be fully vaccinated (including booster shots) and be able to provide proof of vaccination by the end of March 2023.
  1. You must be able to provide yourself with a reliable form of transportation to get to and from the clinic for training sessions and shifts (this can be a car or just means that you are willing to uber/lyft if no other volunteers are available to give you a ride).
The Undergraduate Coordinator positions that are open for applications are as follows: 
Responsible for ensuring proper MA staffing on all clinic days, communicating with MAs about their shifts, finding alternates in case of emergency, and creating shift schedules based on MA availability.
The application for all 4 Undergraduate Coordinator positions is linked here, and is due Fri. March 3rd at 11:59PM. Don't hesitate to reach out with any questions!
