Unit Clerk
Your Opportunity:
Join Our Team at Elk Point Healthcare Centre as a dedicated and detail-oriented Unit Clerk to be the glue that holds our acute and emergency care teams together. In this vital role, you’ll practice the AHS CARES values while working closely with a multidisciplinary team to ensure seamless patient care. Your strong computer skills will shine as you coordinate patient tests and treatments, manage admissions, discharges, and transportation, and keep all documentation accurate and timely. You’ll also greet visitors, handle calls, and facilitate communication within the units, creating a welcoming and organized environment. Clerical responsibilities include distributing and filing documents, processing healthcare billings, scheduling staff, managing payroll, and requisitioning supplies. This position requires exceptional organizational skills, the ability to pivot quickly between tasks, and clear communication. Healthcare experience is an asset but not required, what matters most is your commitment to excellence and teamwork. Nestled in rolling green hills along the North Saskatchewan River, Elk Point is a welcoming town that began as a fur trading post. The community sits on Treaty 6 territory and those lands of the Metis. The town is now a thriving community shaped by agriculture, oil, and its strong sense of history and culture. The town sits at the edge of Alberta’s Lake Country, along the scenic Iron Horse Trail, offering endless opportunities for outdoor exploration. Families enjoy K–12 schools, parks, sports fields, and a variety of community programs and local events. Elk Point is also a hub for history buffs, with nearby provincial historic sites such as Fort George–Buckingham House. Whether you love the outdoors, sports, history, or community life, Elk Point truly has something for everyone.
