What You'll Do in This Role:
Enjoy a career that supports both your professional passion and your personal life. At Huron Valley PACE, you’ll work a Monday–Friday schedule from 8:00 AM to 4:30 PM with no weekends, holidays, on-call, or mandating! Our team members also enjoy flexibility throughout the workday, with opportunities to work between clinic and home care settings. You’ll be part of a supportive, collaborative team that works together to provide exceptional care while creating a positive and balanced work environment.

This role blends hands-on clinical care with administrative support to keep our clinic running smoothly. You’ll assist with exams, procedures, documentation, and participant coordination — all while supporting a mission that helps older adults age with independence. Because this is a community-based PACE program, you’ll also play an essential role in supporting care both onsite and out in the community. Candidates with home care or community-based field experience are strongly encouraged to apply, as these skills help ensure we deliver seamless, person-centered care across settings.
