Here's what the county is looking for:
"The ideal candidate for these positions will possess:
- Excellent communication skills and ability to establish rapport with clients
- The ability to document information in a detailed and timely manner
- Excellent organizational skills and attention to detail
- The ability to work in a fast-paced environment
- Professional health training is not required, but knowledge of health topics is desirable"
Bilingual tracers will make a bonus of a little more than a dollar per hour. And those with some healthcare experience in the community can apply for Health Worker II versus Health Worker I. As described on the county jobs website: "Please Note: Community Health Worker II is the journey level for those with more substantial experience related to public health."
