Healthcare is one of the fastest growing fields out there. Jobs in healthcare are expected to grow 13% in the next ten years. If you’ve been thinking about a career in healthcare, or are just curious about it, this could be the perfect time for you to join our amazing team at Mendocino Coast Clinics.

Healthcare jobs aren’t just for nurses and doctors. There is a wide range of opportunities available, and here at MCC, even an entry level position can lead to a meaningful career. Members of our management team started working at MCC as call center operators, receptionists, and medical assistants, and their careers grew and flourished with the support of administration. MCC is a place where employees can learn and grow, and their talent and dedication are recognized and rewarded. It’s a great place to work.

𝗥𝗲𝗰𝗲𝗽𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗶𝘀𝘁: Our receptionists are the (smiling) face of the clinic. They are the first people our patients see when they walk in the door, and we are proud of how highly our patients rate our receptionists’ courtesy and professionalism on our annual patient satisfaction surveys.

𝗢𝗳𝗳𝗶𝗰𝗲 𝗙𝗹𝗼𝗮𝘁: This is a great opportunity for a flexible, dependable team player to work in a fun, friendly, supportive environment. The Office Float performs a variety of duties, including working on special projects and covering for our reception staff as needed. This is a great way to start your career in healthcare, since you will learn about so many different departments.

𝗗𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗮𝗹 𝗔𝘀𝘀𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗻𝘁: Our Dental Assistants keep things humming in our busy dental clinic. They make every patient, from the youngest to the oldest, feel comfortable and cared for during their visit. We are willing to train the right person, even if they have no previous dental experience. If you are a team player who can multi-task, is a quick learner, and thrives in an environment where no two days are the same, this could be a great fit for you.

𝗠𝗲𝗱𝗶𝗰𝗮𝗹 𝗔𝘀𝘀𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗻𝘁: Here at MCC, we believe our Medical Assistants are the heart of healthcare. They know how to multi-task and adapt to ever-changing needs. We have two openings for Medical Assistants to join our dedicated, caring team in a fun, supportive working environment. Many MAs go on to nursing school and beyond, and this could be a great jumping off place to explore a career in healthcare.
