thisishard Posted June 15, 2019 Share Posted June 15, 2019 Hi everyone. I am currently applying in the 2019-2020 application cycle. I have worked a little over 1,000 hours as a medical scribe before applying. My job as a medical scribe is about to end (it was a one year position), and I have the opportunity to move on as a medical scribe in a different specialty, however I make close to nothing as a scribe ($10 dollars an hour). I started looking for other job opportunities and found some openings as a Human Research Technologist for an academic hospital I live close to. This position pays more ($15), is full time, and has much more responsibility. Even though this position requires taking vital signs and directly involves interacting with the human subjects of the study, I’m worried this experience would not contribute adequately to my application. Anyone have any advice? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patricia5827 Posted June 15, 2019 Share Posted June 15, 2019 I think it would count towards your application! Why do you think not? Taking vitals = patient care in my experience, as long as you put that on your application youll be good. Take the raise, I was a scribe and honestly after a year or two it gets old Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
