IWS Family Health, a community health center providing preventive health care services to children and families, is looking for a Medical Assistant to help grow our practice as we add a third location in 2026. This position will support our medical providers by providing direct patient care and managing patient work flow.
What you will do:
  • Room patients and prepare them for visits, including measuring and accurately recording vital signs (height, weight, blood pressure, pulse, temperature, etc.).
  • Conduct patient interviews to gather chief complaint, medical history, and current medications, and document findings accurately in the medical record.
  • Assist providers during examinations, treatments, and procedures, anticipating needs and ensuring efficient patient flow through the visit.
  • Administer vaccines and other injections per provider order, and perform point-of-care/CLIA-waived laboratory testing (e.g., rapid strep, glucose, urinalysis).
  • Collect and prepare specimens for laboratory testing, including labeling and processing per protocol.
  • Clean, disinfect, and sterilize instruments and equipment between patients in accordance with infection control standards.
  • Stock, organize, and prepare exam and treatment rooms before and throughout the clinic day.
  • Monitor and inventory medical and clinical supplies, placing orders as needed to maintain adequate stock.
  • Perform basic wound care, dressing changes, and other clinical tasks as directed by the provider.

What you will bring:
At a minimum:
  • High school diploma
  • Six months experience in a clinical setting
  • Excellent communication skills including knowledge of medical terminology
  • Intermediate skills in Microsoft Office
  • Experience using electronic medical records
  • Strong communication skills including effective documentation and verification of orders
  • Strong customer service skills including effective bedside manner

We are hoping for:
  • Language skills would be a great benefit to our patients. Spanish and Polish are the most common
  • Medical Assistant Certification
  • Phlebotomy Certification

Compensation and Benefits:
The rate for this position is $21.00 - $22.00 depending on experience. IWS Family Health provides a competitive salary and benefits plan, including generous Paid Time Off (PTO), paid holidays, health, dental, life, disability and vision insurance options, a medical expense reimbursement plan, and a 403(b) option.
Organizational Overview
IWS Family Health (IWS) is a more than 100-year-old organization dedicated to helping children and families grow healthy, strong, and confident by providing trusted, high-quality, coordinated healthcare. At IWS, we envision a community where every child and family thrives with healthy bodies and minds.
Our Logan Square location offers full-service care including pediatrics, family medicine, behavioral health, dental services, and more. Our new pediatric site in Dunning extends our reach, and we're excited to soon open our third location in Belmont Cragin.
We recognize that health is not one-dimensional. It's complex. It's personal. It involves the body, the mind, the community, and often, social and economic realities that cannot be ignored. That's why we've embraced an integrated approach that meets children and families where they are-one that blends complementary healthcare services into a coordinated, person-centered model of care for better outcomes.
We are proud to be an Equal Opportunity Employer. We celebrate diversity and are committed to creating an inclusive environment for all employees.
