Description

Blue Cloud Pediatric Surgery Centers, LLC, is seeking a Registered Dental Assistant (RDA) with a deep passion for serving pediatric patients and special needs individuals. Our clinic specializes in treating both children and adults with unique needs, including cases that are too complex and unable to qualify for general anesthesia, including the ability to provide rendering treatment at other partnered institutions like our Surgery Centers and Children's Hospitals. We cater to a unique patient base, offering specialized care and compassionate service in a pediatric specialty referral clinic setting. This position is ideal for someone who thrives in an environment that blends clinical expertise with a heart of servitude for those who need it most. Key Aspects of the Role: • Commitment to Serving the Underserved: The RDA plays an integral role in ensuring a smooth and efficient operation, with a focus on delivering care to pediatric and special needs patients—both children and adults—who require specialized dental procedures that may not be feasible at general clinics. The ability to provide compassionate, tailored care for this unique demographic is central to the position. • Collaborative and Supportive Care: You will work closely with pediatric specialists, and other dentists anticipating their needs and preparing for complex cases. This involves managing supplies, instruments, and equipment for both routine and specialized procedures while ensuring that all tasks align with the unique needs of each patient. The goal is to foster an environment where the clinic’s operations flow seamlessly, ensuring optimal care for our patients. • Patient-Centered Approach: Every procedure is approached with the patient's developmental, psychosocial, and environmental needs in mind. Whether a child is anxious or has special developmental needs, the RDA’s ability to communicate effectively and adapt to the individual’s requirements is critical in creating a calm and safe environment for treatment. • Cross-Functional Support: Alongside clinical duties, you will assist with front desk responsibilities, patient coordination, and occasional travel (30-50%). This multi-faceted role requires someone who is not only skilled in clinical dental assistance but also in managing patient interaction with care, patience, and understanding. • Emphasis on Compassion and Detail: Given the unique patient base, the role requires an individual who is not only clinically skilled but also deeply empathetic, able to handle the demands of working with children or adults with special needs. You’ll be instrumental in helping to deliver exceptional care to patients who may need extra attention or unique procedures. ________________________________________ Position Requirements: • Experience: 1+ year of experience as a Registered Dental Assistant (RDA). • License: Active state license to practice as an RDA. • Skills: Strong communication, attention to detail, and the ability to adjust care based on individual patient needs. • Certifications: BLS (Basic Life Support) certificate. • Additional: A heart for service, especially for underserved pediatric and special needs patients. Preferred: • Bi-lingual (Spanish) BENEFITS: • We offer medical, vision and dental insurance, Flexible Spending and Health Savings Accounts, PTO (paid time off), short and long-term disability and 401K. • No on call, no holidays, no weekends • Bonus eligible Blue Cloud is an equal opportunity employer.
