What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role where I can manage EMR-based patient documentation, coordinate scheduling and follow-ups, and support remote clinical teams with confidentiality—especially in Western healthcare workflows where clear communication and accuracy matter.

I’m a Clinical Officer with hands-on experience supporting patient documentation and remote healthcare administration. I’ve worked across EMR systems including KenyaEMR, Ilara Health, and DrChrono, and I’m trained through ALX Africa with additional HIPAA compliance certification.

In my current role as a Medical Virtual Assistant at Settim Medical Clinic (Remote), I manage 30–40 patient records daily in DrChrono, coordinate appointment scheduling, and prepare clinical reports and referral letters while maintaining strict confidentiality. Previously, I served as a Medical Scribe for a US-based homecare organization, documenting patient histories and care plans according to HIPAA standards, and I completed a Clinical Officer Internship at Kapsabet County Referral Hospital, managing 30–40 patients daily across outpatient and inpatient units. I’m organized, proactive, and comfortable working independently across time zones with Western healthcare clients.
