HealthPoint is a community-based, community-supported and community-governed network of non-profit health centers dedicated to providing expert, high-quality care to all who need it, regardless of circumstances.

This position is responsible for the provision of comprehensive primary care services in a primary medical care, ambulatory clinic. Compensation is dependent on skills and experience.

Nice To Haves

• If you are providing immunizations from an electronic health record, please ensure that you obtain a copy of your full records rather than a screenshot. Each page of your records should include your first and last name, date of birth, and the name of the health system from which the records are pulled. If records do not show any data, please seek guidance from your provider for further assistance.
• If you are unable to provide proof as noted above, you can choose to have a lab titer drawn to check immunity or to be re-vaccinated.
• If you receive vaccination(s) or lab titers, you may obtain them through HealthPoint at no cost to you. This is a great opportunity to get your immunization record up to date at no additional expense.
