Planned Parenthood Great Plains has provided access to sexual and reproductive health care since 1935. The high-quality, expert, and compassionate care we provide is shown through our empathetic and supportive staff members. Past challenges, and those we face today, have served only to solidify PPGP’s commitment to our patients and the community. We continue to reflect on the progress we have made over the last eight decades and look forward to continuing our efforts to secure a world of informed reproductive freedom. Join our dedicated team and “Care. No matter what.”

Reproductive Health Assistants (RHAs) participate in a team approach to patient care which requires effectively communicating with patients from a wide range of backgrounds and ages and supporting their healthcare experience with compassion and excellent care.  The RHA is responsible for assisting patients including, but not limited to, front desk operations, patient education, patient care, laboratory work, sonogram services, surgical support and recovery.  These responsibilities require the RHA to train and work at multiple stations.
 
For the protection of patients, team members and all who enter our facilities, PPGP has made the decision to require COVID-19 vaccination for all team members, unless granted medical or religious exemption, as a condition of employment.
 
In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, this and other administrative positions at PPGP are working remotely, when possible.  Occasional time in the office may be required for necessary tasks.  Returning to the office on a regular basis is evaluated monthly based on public health trends.  Masks, temperature checks, social distancing, and signing-in are required when working on-site.
