Job Description

Standardized Patients (SPs) have the unique opportunity to be involved in shaping the medical education of tomorrow's physicians and other health care professionals. Standardized Patients simulate individuals in various medical, behavioral, and emotional scenarios. Each scenario or patient case is designed to meet the needs of the curriculum and associated learning objectives. Training will be provided. The majority of simulations are held in person on the OUHSC OKC campus. Work hours are flexible, mostly weekdays.

The number of hours will vary by assignment and programmatic needs. Those seeking regularly scheduled employment should note that this position would work occasionally and not consistently. This work is not weekly and would not compare favorably in total annual hours with regular part-time work. This position does not provide benefits. The ideal candidate is someone with strong communication skills that is looking for occasional work.
