Critical Care Unit Assistant ED
About The Position
At Cuyuna Regional Medical Center (CRMC), we're more than just a healthcare organization - we're a community dedicated to making a meaningful impact. For more than 60 years, we've been providing compassionate, high-quality care in the Greater Brainerd Lakes Area and beyond. Our team is driven by a shared commitment to excellence, innovation, and putting people first - both our patients and our employees. Whether you're on the front lines of patient care or supporting operations behind the scenes, you'll find a culture of collaboration, growth, and respect. If you're looking for a career where your work truly matters, we invite you to join us at CRMC and be part of something bigger. As a Critical Care Unit Assistant in the Emergency Department, you will manage clerical activities and assist with patient care coordination to support medical staff efficiently. Your responsibilities include maintaining complete and systematically organized medical records, executing delegated direct care tasks under nurse supervision, and interacting professionally with staff, patients, and visitors to enhance communication and facility image. The role demands multitasking ability in a dynamic, fast-paced environment, where setting priorities and adapting to changing scenarios are daily expectations. In addition to routine duties, you will be responsible for inventory control, stocking supplies, and maintaining cleanliness in patient and equipment areas. In the Emergency Room at CRMC, we see it all — from critical traumas that demand split-second decisions to more routine concerns that simply can’t wait until Monday. As a rural healthcare facility, we are both the first line of defense in life-threatening emergencies and the safety net for our community. Whether it’s coordinating an emergency airlift, managing multiple cases, or simply being there to listen when a patient needs reassurance, our team is skilled at adapting to whatever the day brings. No matter what comes through our doors, we are ready. And every shift is an opportunity to make a difference.
