Salt Lake City, United States Fourth Street Clinic Full time
Job DescriptionJob Description

HOMELESSNESS HURTS. HEALTH CARE HELPS. If you are passionate about giving back to your community, we want you to join our team. Fourth Street Clinic, in downtown Salt Lake City, has been providing essential health care services to those experiencing homelessness for nearly 35 years. When you join the growing Fourth Street Clinic team, you're not just taking a job; you're impacting the lives of others.


Fourth Street Clinic is seeking a motivated phlebotomist to become our next Lab Coordinator. This position works collaboratively with other clinic teams to improve overall health outcomes for persons experiencing homelessness through access to high-quality, evidence-based healthcare in a trauma-informed setting. For many Utahns experiencing homelessness, Fourth Street Clinic is their first and only chance at a diagnosis and ongoing treatment. By increasing access to primary medical care, behavioral health, dental, pharmacy, specialty care, health education, and supportive services we are a major partner in ending homelessness, promoting community health, and achieving across-the-board healthcare savings.


The Fourth Street Clinic Lab Coordinator role is at our main clinic at 409 West 400 South in downtown Salt Lake City and will also travel to some outreach locations in the Salt Lake Valley. This role provides direct care to our patients and manages the daily workings of the lab with another Lab Coordinator, the MA Manager, and the Nursing Director. The team assists primary care, behavioral health, and many specialty provider staff, both at our main hub and at outreach sites with our mobile clinic.


Our lab staff demonstrates a range of talents that include clinical and administrative capabilities, providing many opportunities to positively impact patients' lives. This role is busy, varied, and requires enthusiasm, flexibility, and commitment. This includes taking a patient's medical history, collecting, and preparing blood and other specimens for testing, processing lab specimens, and maintaining lab supplies and equipment. It requires both phlebotomy and specimen-processing skills, so being an organized, multi-skilled technician is a must. You will also work with our Outreach Team to ensure compliance requirements are met through documentation and data collection.


Join this fun, dedicated, compassionate, educated, and resourceful team. Take this opportunity to specialize in an area you are passionate about, whether that is integrated healthcare, nonprofit work, or delivering care to the underserved and unhoused.


Core Responsibilities

  • Perform blood and specimen collection following laboratory guidelines.
  • Assist in training all clinic staff on Lab policy and procedures and manufacturer-specific training.
  • Responsible for transportation, verification, and integrity of medical specimens from one location to another by recording, monitoring, and maintaining the temperature ranges for frozen, ambient, incubated, and refrigerated laboratory specimens.
  • Perform and document quality control and equipment maintenance within predetermined parameters.
  • Organize and maintain lab database, including maintaining all relevant logs for all lab and lab license needs.
  • Monitor and evaluate lab inventory and supplies, including the process of ordering inventorying, stocking, and evaluation of par levels.

Minimum requirements

  • Provide quality patient care as it pertains to performing phlebotomy procedures.
  • Stand and walk for 70% of the time.
  • Tolerate standing while performing bloodwork.
  • Have sufficient eye/hand coordination skills related to the performance of phlebotomy procedures.
  • Be able to use senses (vision, hearing, smell, and touch) to recognize changes in a patient's condition and needs.
  • Be able to hear, understand, and react quickly to verbal instructions and patient needs, including but not exclusive to hearing codes, alarms, and patient calls.
  • Be able to maneuver in the laboratory around instruments, in confined spaces, and in patient rooms.
  • Be able to manipulate small objects and control adaptive devices using glove technique.
  • Provide physical and emotional support to the patient during phlebotomy procedures.
  • Perform phlebotomy procedures according to established OSHA standards.
  • Distinguish red, yellow, and blue colors. Distinguish clear from cloudy fluid.

What's in it for me?

Intrinsic rewards are wonderful, but we know you have fundamental needs, too. In addition to your competitive hourly wage, FSC has some of the best benefits around We put employees in a great position to successfully balance work productivity and personal goals:

  • We pay 100% of the premium for individual Health Insurance
  • Affordable Dental & Vision coverage
  • Company-paid Life & Disability insurance
  • 401(k) seeding & employer match
  • Generous Paid Time Off, plus additional personal holidays and wellness days.
  • 12 paid holidays where the clinic is closed (11 full days, plus half-days on Christmas Eve and New Year's Eve)
  • Tuition Reimbursement & Employee Assistance

Why Fourth Street Clinic?

According to the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services, many people in the United States don't get needed health care services due to barriers such as a lack of transportation, affordable housing, educational background, or discrimination. FSC is here to provide services to vulnerable individuals and families, reducing barriers caused by social determinants of health. Wasatch Homeless Health Care, Inc. (doing business as Fourth Street Clinic) began in 1988 as a triage clinic with one part-time nurse, relying on hospitals for patient treatment. Today, FSC operates with a staff of nearly 100 caregivers and an eight-figure annual budget. Last year, we provided comprehensive health care to more than 5,000 unsheltered men, women, and children through more than 20,000 visits in-person on-site, virtually, or through our Mobile Outreach van.


Join a team of dedicated, innovative, mission-driven staff who seek to deliver healthcare to under-resourced members of our community

Fourth Street Clinic embraces diversity, equity, and inclusion at all levels of our organization, and we strive for every employee to be comfortable being their authentic self at work. We are committed to building a team with a variety of backgrounds, identities, and ideas. We value greater inclusivity which yields greater achievements, fosters belonging, and improves access to high-quality health care for all as an essential human right.
