Description

About Our Program:  
Family Care Center (FCC) accepts medical assistant students into our behavioral health externship program throughout the year. Externs at FCC gain clinical experience and training on a volunteer basis.  
  
Externs work under the direct supervision of a preceptor in an outpatient Behavioral Health clinic, and are involved in assisting physicians, patient education, quality control and documentation, medical records charting, prescription refills, urinalysis, and taking vital signs, heigh & weight. In addition, they participate in appointment scheduling, claims forms, data collection, filing, and medical records management.  
  
This is a 200-hour externship and work hours are Monday through Friday from 8 am to 5 pm (exact start & end times differ by clinic). There is no evening or weekend hours.

This is an unpaid/volunteer externship opportunity. Students must apply and interview at the clinic location to be considered.
