Medical Assistant - Womens Center

Job Description

With 118 beds and more than 400 physicians on its medical staff, Pali Momi Medical Center offers a full range of services for the communities of Central and West O'ahu. The hospital has delivered many medical firsts for the community, including Central and West O'ahu's only interventional cardiac catheterization unit to detect and treat heart disease, a fully integrated minimally invasive surgical suite, a comprehensive women's center, CT scan and MRI services, and the state's first retina center. Pali Momi is the only facility in Hawai'i that uses a team triage approach in its emergency room, where patients are promptly evaluated by an emergency physician.

The Pali Momi Women's Center is growing to meet the needs of our West O'ahu community. Since our opening 10 years ago, patients have come to depend on our caring staff and professional services for regular check-ups and advanced breast cancer care.

In late summer 2012, our Women's Center moved next door to our brand new Pali Momi Medical Pavilion: an expansion that combines our tradition of excellent care, patient safety and the latest technology in a convenient, beautiful and comfortable space. Our Women's Center offers breast, bone and women's health services such as Mammography and Stereotactic core biopsies, plus Ultrasound for expectant mothers, a Patient Navigator to help patients through their health care journey, a resource library and the most advanced technology in digital mammography and breast MRI. Pali Momi Women's Center was named a Breast Imaging Centers of Excellence by the doctors who specialize in mammography and breast diagnostics-the American College of Radiology-and ranks among the top eight percent in the nation.

As a Medical Assistant in our Women's Center, you will form part of the dedicated team of physicians and medical staff that provide caring, thorough health services to our patients and their families. In this role, you will perform a wide variety of patient care activities to clients of all ages. We are looking for someone detail-oriented and attentive, with strong communications and patient care skills and a commitment to delivering the highest quality health care to Hawai'i's people.
