This full-time, primarily day-shift position offers a balanced schedule with limited on-call responsibilities—just one evening or on-call shift per week, one weekend in seven, and rotating holidays.

    • Collect and handle patient specimens using proper techniques and protocols
    • Accurately record and report results through the laboratory information system
    • Operate, calibrate, and troubleshoot laboratory instruments
    • Support quality assurance and participate in proficiency testing
    • Prepare reagents and maintain laboratory standards
    • Communicate effectively with providers and team members to ensure high-quality patient care

    What You Bring

    • Strong attention to detail and ability to manage multiple tasks efficiently
    • Excellent communication and customer service skills
    • Ability to work independently with confidence and accountability
    • MLS: Bachelor’s degree in Medical Laboratory Science or related field
    • MLT: Associate degree from an accredited program
    • ASCP certification required
    • Valid driver’s license with a clean driving record

    What We Offer
    We are committed to supporting our team with a comprehensive and competitive benefits package designed for both your professional and personal well-being:

    • Competitive wages
    • Health plan with employer-funded Health Savings Account
    • Immediate retirement plan matching
    • Generous paid time off
    • Dental and vision coverage
    • On-site childcare for convenience and peace of mind
    • Employer-paid life insurance and short- and long-term disability coverage
    • Voluntary supplemental insurance options

    Make a Meaningful Impact Every Day
    At Memorial Health Care Systems, you’ll find a workplace where your skills are valued, your contributions matter, and your career can grow. Join a team that is committed to excellence in patient care and to supporting one another.

    Apply today to become part of something meaningful.
