  Perform vitals, administer medications/vaccines, and assist with in-office procedures.
• Documentation:
  Maintain meticulous EHR records for all phone consultations and clinical encounters to ensure continuity of care.

Valid Michigan LPN License. Prior experience in triage or a fast-paced pediatric setting is highly preferred. Exceptional "phone-side manner" and the ability to remain calm under pressure. Strong critical thinking skills to differentiate between routine concerns and emergencies.
