Join Cleveland Clinic’s Main Campus where research and surgery are advanced, technology is leading-edge, patient care is world class and caregivers are family. Here, you will work alongside a passionate and dedicated team, receive endless support and appreciation, and build a rewarding career with one of the most respected healthcare organizations in the world.
As an Outpatient Clinical Care Assistant, you will play a key role in supporting both patients and caregivers in a fast-paced outpatient setting. Responsibilities include performing health screenings, collecting specimens, updating medical records, maintaining exam rooms, stocking clinical supplies, and monitoring and documenting patient conditions to support quality care.

Your compassion, professionalism, and attention to detail will help set the tone for each visit and make a meaningful impact on the patient experience every day.
