Patient Champion - Student Applicants!

Grapefruit Health is a healthcare services company that is addressing the massive staffing shortage in healthcare. We do this by training and managing clinical students to perform remote, telephonic interactions with patients using our web application. Patients get the care they need, healthcare organizations can do much more, and you get to learn while you earn. It is a win-win-win!

We are currently seeking clinical students to come work with us. This can be any clinical student type including, but not limited to nursing, pharmacy, social work, medical assistant, certified nursing assistants, dietitians, and more. You’ll have the ability to utilize the clinical skill sets and communication processes you’ve learned in your clinical program by conducting telephonic interactions with patients. Each student will commit to a minimum of 6 hours of patient outreach on your schedule per week, but you can work as much as you want!
