Question 1

What service lines are on site? Can I just serve in those as a provider?

Accepted Answer

Our clinics offer Urgent Care, Dental Extractions and Cleanings, Hypertension Management, and Early Prenatal Care. If your specialty fits within the scope of one of these service lines, we'd be happy to have you join us on site! If your specialty is outside the scope of these services, you might consider one of our specialty service areas; consult, referral, or satellite clinics.

Please note, because of the dynamic nature of our clinics and our unique patient population we require providers to have at least one year of experience post-graduation prior to serving in a provider role on site. Many providers chose to serve in the RN/Tech role during this period to grow in comfort with the context of the ministry as well as begin practicing sharing their faith.

Question 3

What does the consult role encompass?

Accepted Answer

Consult volunteers will be put on a HIPAA compliant messaging tool with our clinic staff providers, so they will then be able to send questions related to their specialty. Consult volunteers are asked to monitor the messaging tool periodically and as able respond to questions and inquiries. Same day responses are ideal, but it's understood there will be time volunteers are unavailable.

Additionally, consult volunteers may be asked to provide Watermark Health clinical staff for various trainings related to their specialty. The requests for this type of training would depend on their specialty and the frequency of that type of patient case on site.

What does the satellite clinic opportunity encompass?

Satellite volunteers typically work at or own a private practice that has the flexibility to make decisions about the use of the facility.
