PATIENT PRODUCT SPECIALIST NEEDED PART-TIME IN TO WORK IN OUR LANCASTER / PALMDALE AREAS OF THE ANTELOPE VALLEY
In this position you would be driving to service our patients and healthcare facilities in the Lancaster and Palmdale areas of the Antelope Valley. You will be trained on how to setup patients on our durable medical equipment, which would be doing setups and pickups with the possibility of also handling our inventory items at select hospitals in the area. You would primarily be working out of the two hospital locations, but could also be going to patient homes and other healthcare facilities. The hourly wage increases as more products are learned.
This is a part-time position, paid per hour based on the time worked per order assigned for you to handle. This job allows for some flexibility with work hours, which is why it is perfect for someone looking for part-time, supplemental income. However, we are looking for someone with availability in the afternoons and early evenings, including some weekends.
Based upon your availability and the orders for the area, there is the potential to work approximately 2 to 5 hours per week, or 4 or more hours per ''biweekly'' pay period. (Number of hours are not guaranteed.) The wage range is from $18.50 to $23.50 per hour based on experience and products learned.
- Mileage reimbursement at the current going IRS rate
- $25/month cell phone reimbursement
- 401K Retirement Plan eligibility for those 21 and over
If you have previous hospital inventory or supply clerk experience, especially in the durable medical equipment, orthopedic, sports medicine, or physical therapy fields, this is a plus. This position also has the potential for growth within the company.
