Our clinics serve a multicultural, multilingual, predominantly low income, population. About 40% of the patients are non-English speaking, with top languages being Spanish, Russian, Somali, Chinese-Cantonese, and Arabic. The Health Department is seeking clinicians who are enthusiastic about providing high-quality, relational, structurally competent care to all clients; oriented toward preventive health; and committed to decreasing inequities caused by racism and other discrimination. Qualified candidates must be board-certified or board-eligible; this position is not a J-1 visa or HB-1 opportunity.
We seek leaders, achievers and doers who bring skill and passion to a challenging and evolving environment. At the Multnomah County Health Department, we are all inspired by the mission: We work with communities to advance health equity, protect the most vulnerable, and prompt health and wellness for everyone and we uphold the values: Compassion and Care, Empowerment, Racial Equity, Creativity and Integrity. We create a culture of respect, trust and understanding for the highly diverse population we serve in our communities.
