  • Self-scheduling model
  • Every third or every other weekend, based on department needs

About the Role
Join a collaborative postpartum team where you'll work alongside nurses to provide compassionate care for new mothers and newborns. As a Patient Care Associate (PCA), you'll play an important role in supporting patients, assisting the nursing team, and helping the unit run smoothly.
This is an excellent opportunity for someone interested in building a career in healthcare while gaining valuable inpatient experience.

Why Join This Team?
Our postpartum unit is known for its collaborative culture and strong teamwork. Every member of the care team plays an important role, and Patient Care Associates are valued as trusted partners to our nurses.
While most days focus on supporting healthy mothers and newborns, you'll also gain experience responding to urgent situations and developing valuable clinical skills in an inpatient hospital setting.
This role is well suited for candidates interested in nursing or other healthcare careers who are looking to build hands-on experience in a supportive environment.
Minimum Qualifications
  • High school graduate or equivalent

  • Strong interpersonal skills are necessary to interface with support and professional staff and patients.
Work Environment
This position is based in a busy hospital setting and requires frequent standing, walking, lifting, and assisting patients while following all hospital safety, infection prevention, and regulatory requirements.
Pay Range:
$20.00 - $26.92
The pay range listed for this position is the base hourly wage range the organization reasonably and in good faith expects to pay for this position at this time. Actual compensation is determined based on several factors, that may include seniority, education, training, relevant experience, relevant certifications, geography of work location, job responsibilities, or other applicable factors permissible by law. Compensation may exceed the base hourly rate depending on shift differentials, call pay, premium pay, overtime pay, and other additional pay practices, as applicable to the position and in accordance with the law.
As a health care organization, we have a responsibility to do everything in our power to care for and protect our patients, our colleagues and our communities. Beth Israel Lahey Health requires that all staff be vaccinated against influenza (flu) as a condition of employment.
More than 35,000 people working together. Nurses, doctors, technicians, therapists, researchers, teachers and more, making a difference in patients' lives. Your skill and compassion can make us even stronger.
