Job Description: Scribe

Scribes shadow the Emergency Room Physicians and complete all documentation tasks for the doctors as well as organize pending lab and x-ray results. We provide a comprehensive training manual, and a one-month "hands-on" training program where new scribes work alongside experienced scribes.

Initially, the new scribes are only learning how to perform their job duties. The real benefit of the program, however, is what the scribes learn outside of their specific duties. In the ER, doctors treat patients with ailments and illnesses that span all specialties of medicine.

The individual scribes can learn as much as they want in regards to almost all areas of medicine. Additionally, the scribes develop personal relationships with 20 or more ER physicians, and are able to learn the practice styles of many different doctors.

• Applicants must be planning to attend medical school or PA school
• Completion of Organic Chemistry is preferred but not mandatory
• Flexible schedule: all scribes work some days, some nights, some weekends, and some holidays.
• We will never schedule you to work when you have class.
• No prior experience is necessary. Training is provided over a one-month period during the summer.
• The worst reason to become a scribe is to have something to put on your resume. Observations and volunteer work accomplish this goal
• This job requires a very large commitment of time and energy!

Applicants to the Scribe Program must be independent, responsible, reliable, self-starters with a strong desire to learn. The Scribe Program truly is the best Pre-med job available. We ask for a high degree of dedication, and offer a rewarding learning experience in return.
