Nursing Assistant Jobs
Position Type:
Sourcing
Hours Per Week:
Full time 40 hours per week
FT/PT/PD:
Full time
New England Baptist Hospital in Boston is an orthopedic surgical specialty hospital that does more complex orthopedic surgery than our neighboring academic medical centers combined. We do more total joint procedures than any other hospital in Massachusetts. In fact, we are a leader in orthopedic surgery nationally. We have 16 operating rooms in Boston and an 8 room Ambulatory Surgery Center just outside Boston in Dedham, Massachusetts. Being a specialty hospital without an emergency room allows for more predictability for work/life balance. We have been Covid-19 free during the past year.
We are well known for our positive culture that we built together, the Baptist Way. We treat each other, our patients, visitors and peers with dignity and respect in every interaction. We celebrate our diversity and inclusion by providing a warm welcome to everyone who comes through our doors. The secret is we build great relationships and own the patient and employee experience which means we are empowered to improve it. Every member of the team is valued and appreciated and that is evident by our great teamwork.
The Patient Care Associate provides a comprehensive, proactive, and "Patients First" experience for our patients and visitors. This role sets the tone for the entire patient experience.
You will perform unit activities under the direction of the Registered Professional Nurse. These include, but are not limited to, direct patient care activities such as taking vital signs and assisting patients with the basic activities of daily living, as well as non-clinical activities such as acting as a receptionist, coordinating equipment, providing transportation activities, and performing tasks specific to the department assigned.
The Patient Care Associate interacts with patients, families, nursing, and a variety of interdisciplinary personnel and possesses strong interpersonal and communication skills. The PCA staff work closely together to ensure safe patient care and smooth unit operations. Candidates currently working towards their nursing degree with previous clinical rotation experience are highly desired.
We are seeking team-oriented, caring people who aspire to a career in healthcare helping patients. If you have a great work history and would like to be trained to become a Patient Care Assistant, please apply. We will be interviewing this summer for a September training program. The training program is free of charge and you will be paid for attending it.
