About MyPlace Health
myPlace Health was founded in 2021 by mission-aligned healthcare leaders and organizations that are committed to drastically improving health outcomes, quality and experience for vulnerable older adults and frail seniors. We specialize in providing value-based, comprehensive care and coverage for older adults with significant needs so they can thrive in the homes they love and in the communities they cherish.
Our mission is simple: to enable older adults to live the independent lives they deserve. We pursue this mission through our myPlace PACE (Program of All-Inclusive Care for the Elderly) model, which provides seamless primary care, integrated health plan coverage, personalized social engagement, and customized services delivered in the participant’s preferred place.
myPlace Health is building a mission-driven team that shares our passion for redefining the way older adults experience care as they “age in place” in the community. This is a unique opportunity to take on one of our country’s most challenging healthcare problems and join a fast-growing, dynamic team as we prepare to scale our mission to serve more markets.
About This Role
Are you a team player who thrives in a collaborative environment and is passionate about making a difference in the lives of high-risk seniors and frail older adults? We are looking for a dedicated Medical Assistant to join our PACE (Program of All-Inclusive Care for the Elderly) team, where your contributions will directly impact participant health and well-being.
In this center-based role, you will play a key part in providing high-quality participant care, supporting both clinical and administrative functions in the clinic. From taking vital signs and performing lab testing to assisting with phlebotomy, EKGs, immunizations, and wound care, your work will help ensure our participants receive the best possible care. You’ll also work closely with the Interdisciplinary Team (IDT) to share important insights on participant health and document all interactions in the Electronic Medical Record (EMR) system.
This is an opportunity to be part of a mission-driven, participant-centered program where every day brings new ways to support, advocate for, and improve the lives of older adults. If you’re looking for a meaningful career in a supportive and dynamic healthcare setting, we’d love to meet you!
