Familiarity with medical terminology, ICD coding (ICD-9/ICD-10), and medical documentation standards. Knowledge of infection control practices, sterile techniques, and aseptic procedures. Ability to work effectively with individuals with developmental disabilities or behavioral health needs. Strong assessment skills including vital signs measurement and patient evaluation; experience with tube feeding or ventilator management is a plus. Proficiency in EMR/EHR systems such as Athenahealth or eClinicalWorks; familiarity with medical imaging or laboratory procedures is advantageous. Excellent communication skills combined with critical thinking to prioritize resident safety and comfort in a fast-paced environment.
