What are the responsibilities and job description for the Medical Assistant position at Northern Nevada HOPES?
We are seeking experienced and compassionate Medical Assistants to expand our impressive Medical Assistant team! The chosen candidates should possess a great attitude, passion for learning, commitment to helping others and excellent customer service.
Medical Assistants (MA) are versatile medical professionals who provide assistance to physicians, advanced practice clinicians and their patients.

The MA’s primary focus is assisting with delivery of high quality, evidence-based care to patients. Our MAs support the multidisciplinary team, provide education and resources and take an active involvement with patients to ensure optimal wellness. Medical Assistants may lead a team, oversee a program or provide education which contributes to HOPES’ mission in ways other than patient care.
