The organization values diversity, equity, and inclusion, ensuring a respectful workplace free from discrimination of any kind, aligned with all applicable national, state, and local laws.

The Entry Level Medical Scribe role at Vituity offers a unique opportunity for undergraduates or post-baccalaureate students interested in pursuing careers in healthcare, particularly those preparing for Medical, Physician Assistant (PA), or Nurse Practitioner (NP) school. As a scribe, individuals will work side-by-side with frontline physicians in various clinical settings such as the Emergency Department, Intensivist Care, Telemetry, and Medical-Surgical units, gaining firsthand exposure to medical practice and patient care processes. This role not only enhances familiarity with medical terminology, human anatomy, and physiology but also develops essential skills such as quick and accurate typing and professional documentation. The scribe position is designed for those seeking to build clinical experience, strengthen their resumes, and connect with healthcare mentors, offering a valuable stepping stone into advanced healthcare education and careers.

Based in facilities such as Queen of the Valley Hospital in West Covina, CA, a faith-based not-for-profit hospital known for its family-centered maternity services and level IIIB Newborn ICU, the scribe will be part of a dynamic and supportive health system. Additional opportunities are available at Inter-Community Hospital in Covina, CA, famous for its cardiac care and open-heart surgery program, and Foothill Presbyterian Hospital in Glendora, CA, a primary stroke and trauma center accredited for its comprehensive medical services. These hospitals provide a fast-paced, high-volume environment that offers robust learning experiences for scribes.

Located in the vibrant city of West Covina, California, scribes benefit from a community that balances suburban comfort with access to major Southern California attractions. With year-round mild weather, excellent schools, cultural events, and recreational parks, West Covina is an ideal place for students and professionals seeking growth both personally and professionally. The compensation for this entry-level role is $18.63 per hour, reflecting Vituity's commitment to fair and competitive pay.

This role requires a one-year commitment, including availability for 2-3 shifts per week (weekends and holidays included). Candidates must demonstrate responsibility, maturity, strong writing skills, the ability to maintain focus in fast-paced environments, and physical stamina to stand and follow physicians during shifts. Experience with medical terminology and healthcare concepts is preferred but not mandatory. A successful candidate will undergo a scribe application test as part of the selection process. Vituity supports its employees with programs such as Employee Assistance Program (EAP), travel assistance, and identity theft protection, fostering a purpose-driven culture focused on improving lives across patients, communities, and staff.

Joining Vituity as an entry-level scribe offers the chance to grow within a healthcare system that prioritizes teamwork, diversity, and career development. This position provides practical clinical experience and mentorship opportunities that can accelerate advancement toward a professional healthcare career. Vituity’s dedication to employee well-being and professional growth makes this role a compelling start for emerging healthcare professionals.
