Dedicated healthcare professional with extensive patient care experience.
What I'm looking for
I am a dedicated healthcare professional with a strong background in patient care and administrative support. Currently, I work as a Financial Clearance Specialist at Ann and Robert Children's Hospital, where I ensure insurance eligibility and benefit verification to prevent denials. My experience spans various roles, including Patient Care Coordinator and Patient Access Representative, where I honed my skills in patient interaction and insurance processes.
Throughout my career, I have demonstrated a commitment to providing exceptional care and support to patients. My role as a Licensed Practical Nurse at the Port Orchard County Jail involved administering medication and assisting doctors in the infirmary. I have also worked as a caregiver, helping mentally disabled clients lead fulfilling lives. My diverse experience in healthcare has equipped me with the skills necessary to thrive in fast-paced environments while maintaining a focus on patient well-being.
