The Certified Medical Assistant (CMA) in the Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery Clinic provides pre and post-operative evaluation and care for pediatric and adult reconstructive surgery related to body injuries and conditions, burns, pressure ulcer and wound closure, cleft lip and palate, facial and jaw injuries, hand injuries, head and neck tumors, breast and skin cancer as well as tissue transfer/transplant. The clinic also cares for patients who have undergone transgender health surgeries such as vaginoplasty, phalloplasty, mastoplasty, and mastectomies.
The Certified Medical Assistant (CMA) has duties and responsibilities related to patient care in the ambulatory clinic environment. The individual displays responsible behaviors, communicates effectively with others, and functions as a member of the healthcare team. The CMA functions under the direct supervision and authority of the physician when performing clinical tasks during patient care. The CMA reports to the clinic manager, who is responsible for administrative supervision, staff development, and orientation to the area's policies and procedures. The CMA maintains an inventory of examination/procedure room supplies, assists in the organization of efficient patient flow, and helps maintain a safe clinic environment.
This Plastic Surgery clinic offers a more hands-on experience than many traditional outpatient settings. CMAs play an active role in assisting with minor procedures, including setting up instruments, sterile trays, and supplies, as well as breaking down procedure rooms afterward. Responsibilities also include assisting with dressing changes and wound care. The team is looking for a motivated, proactive individual who enjoys being involved in procedural patient care and is eager to take on responsibilities beyond obtaining vital signs and rooming patients. This is an excellent opportunity for someone who wants to expand their clinical skills in a fast-paced, team-oriented environment.
