At Pediatric Specialty Care, we provide specialized care for medically fragile and technology-dependent children in a warm, supportive, home-like environment.

Every member of our team contributes to that mission—including the people working behind the scenes to make sure our units operate efficiently.

As a Unit Clerk, you are the organizational heartbeat of the nursing unit.

What You’ll Help Make Happen

Your attention to detail and ability to stay organized will help support:

• Medical Records: Help maintain accurate, organized, and up-to-date resident information.
• Appointments & Follow-Up: Coordinate appointments, transportation details, and necessary documentation.
• Nursing Team Support: Help ensure supplies, paperwork, and essential information are ready when our clinical teams need them.
• Admissions & Discharges: Support smooth transitions by helping coordinate documentation and census updates.

• Be part of a mission focused on helping incredible children reach their fullest potential

You Could Be a Great Fit If You Are:

Organized. Dependable. Detail-oriented. A strong communicator. Comfortable multitasking. Calm under pressure. And, most importantly, motivated by work that matters.

You don’t have to provide direct clinical care to make a difference in a child’s healthcare journey.

Sometimes the person keeping everything organized is the person helping everyone else provide their best care.
