At Air Liquide Home Healthcare Canada, we believe in patient-centered care and innovation. We’re on a mission to help transform healthcare for the better. From advancing and digitizing our tools, products, and systems, to forging meaningful relationships with our patients.
Air Liquide Home Healthcare Canada is a leading provider of sleep apnea tests, treatments, and home oxygen services. We partner closely with the healthcare community to deliver an exceptional patient experience that supports health, wellness, and collaborative medicine.
Ready to be part of this global family of companies making a difference in the quality of life for patients around the world?
We are seeking a highly meticulous and technically adaptable Clinical Data Intern to play a critical role in our upcoming system transition. The primary focus of this position is the systematic, high-speed extraction and transfer of sensitive patient data, including demographics, medical histories, and clinical notes from our legacy database into OpenEMR. In this fast-paced environment, you will be responsible for maintaining daily migration quotas, organizing digital files, and conducting routine quality assurance checks to ensure absolute data integrity.
The ideal candidate is a highly computer-literate professional with exceptional keyboarding skills (65+ WPM) and a proven ability to navigate complex, dual-monitor software setups seamlessly. Because errors in medical records directly impact patient care, a razor-sharp attention to detail and strict adherence to regulations and confidentiality protocols are non-negotiable. Prior experience with Electronic Health Record (EHR) systems, medical terminology, and database transition roles is highly preferred. This is an office-based role requiring prolonged computer work, visual acuity, and high manual dexterity.
Data Migration & Entry: Systematically extract, transfer, and input patient demographics, medical histories, billing information, and clinical notes from the legacy system into OpenEMR.
Patient Data Management: Handle highly sensitive Protected Health Information (PHI) with strict adherence to HIPAA regulations and internal confidentiality protocols.
Quality Assurance: Conduct routine data verification checks to ensure data integrity, identifying and correcting any discrepancies, duplicates, or formatting errors during the transfer process.
System Navigation: Seamlessly toggle between multiple software platforms and databases to cross-reference patient information.
Progress Tracking: Maintain daily logs of migration progress and report any technical roadblocks or data anomalies to the project supervisor immediately.
Filing & Organization: Assist with organizing digital files, scanning documents, and attaching them to the correct patient charts within OpenEMR.
Exceptional Keyboarding Skills: Fast and accurate typing ability (minimum 65+ WPM with high keystroke accuracy is preferred).
Computer Literacy: High technical aptitude with the ability to quickly learn new software systems, navigate complex databases, and utilize dual-monitor setups.
Fast-Paced Adaptability: Proven ability to meet daily data-entry quotas and deadlines without sacrificing quality in a high-speed work environment.
Attention to Detail: Meticulous approach to data input, recognizing that errors in medical records can severely impact patient care.
Healthcare Compliance: Understanding of medical confidentiality laws (HIPAA) and best practices for handling sensitive personal data.
Communication Skills: Strong written and verbal communication skills to effectively report system issues or data discrepancies to management.
Prior experience working with OpenEMR or other Electronic Health Record (EHR) / Electronic Medical Record (EMR) systems (e.g., Epic, Cerner, Athenahealth).
Previous experience in a data migration, data cleansing, or database transition role.
Familiarity with basic medical terminology.
This role operates in a professional office environment.
Requires prolonged periods of sitting at a desk and working on a computer.
Requires visual acuity to read data on computer screens and high manual dexterity for continuous keyboarding.
