Carol Smith

With over 30 years of dedicated experience in healthcare, I am a Certified Case Manager and Registered Nurse specializing in acute rehabilitation. My journey began as a patient care technician, where I developed a strong foundation in patient care, leading to my role as a Registered Nurse at Penn Medicine. Here, I honed my skills in managing complex cases, focusing on both the medical and emotional needs of patients and their families.

Throughout my career, I have taken on various responsibilities, including utilization review, discharge planning, and leading interdisciplinary teams. My role at Encompass Health Rehabilitation Hospital involved caring for 10-15 medically complex patients, ensuring they receive the highest quality of care. I am passionate about improving patient outcomes and advocating for their needs, making me a valuable asset to any healthcare team.
