Medical Assistant (Summer Camp)

Amazing practical experience for nursing and pre-med students in the medical center of a large residential summer camp (June-August).

Have you ever thought about a summer job as a medical assistant at a summer camp?

Working at Sandy Hill is challenging, rewarding and lots of fun!

The Sandy Hill Staff is a team of 160 college-aged staff from around the world who work together to positively impact the lives of over 2500 campers each summer.

Medical Assistants at Sandy Hill Camp are responsible for supporting the licensed medical staff with first aid, medical paperwork, medication administration, and the general guardianship of the health care center throughout the summer. Specific responsibilities include:

· First Aid

• Provide first aid under the supervision of RNs, PAs and MDs to campers and staff members.
• Transport and advocate for campers needing offsite medical care.

· Medical Paperwork

• Organize and review camper and staff medical forms and supplies.
• Address health issues and help establish necessary accommodations to meet campers needs while at Sandy Hill.
• Log camper and staff visits to the health care center and off-site doctor appointments.

· Medication Administration

• Organize and administer camper medications. Includes medication administration certification.

· Guardianship of the Health Care Center

• Assist as an “on-call” attendant to camper first aid and medical needs throughout the summer.

All medical assistants would be responsible for attending training in late May/early June to receive First Aid, CPR and Medication Administration certifications. They would also participate in a week of staff training, followed by eight weeks of camp, with the final day of camp being August 8th.

Pay is high for camps at $5,000 for the summer (plus meals and housing) for first-year medical assistants.
