Daisha Porter
@daishaporter
I’m a patient care and customer service professional who turns complex calls into timely, accurate outcomes.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Remote Patient Care Specialist with a strong customer-first approach and a track record of keeping high-volume service running smoothly. I research and respond to inquiries in a timely way, follow up to ensure satisfaction, and maintain the records management that helps teams stay accountable.
In my most recent role, I organize and maintain call logs and performance reports for management review, and I assist with correspondence and presentation materials. I also build and maintain statistical reports using word processing and spreadsheet software, while monitoring budgets, reconciling purchase orders and requisitions, and keeping supply inventory aligned with departmental expectations.
Earlier, I strengthened my call-center and service accuracy as a Remote Proxy Call Center CSR—coaching reps, monitoring call logs, working with an automated dialer, researching contact information, and recording shareholder voting instructions. I’ve also handled reservation-based customer care (meeting established AHT/CPH objectives and ADA requirements), member services inquiries, and administrative data entry with careful attention to confidentiality and detail.
