@ericacourtney
Healthcare operations professional improving patient flow, compliant documentation, and scheduling efficiency.
What I'm looking for
I’m a detail-oriented healthcare professional with extensive experience in high-volume hospital unit operations and administrative coordination. Supported by a Master’s degree in Physician Assistant Studies, I bring functional knowledge of medical terminology, documentation standards, and clinical processes.
I’ve managed complex clinical workflows end-to-end—patient admissions, transfers, discharges, and multi-disciplinary staff scheduling—while maintaining strict regulatory compliance and data integrity within Electronic Health Records. I take pride in clear, professional communication with patients, families, and healthcare providers, especially in high-pressure environments.
Across my roles with the Department of Defense - Massachusetts Army National Guard and Baystate Medical Center, I served as a trusted operational and administrative point of contact. As a military officer, I supervised and mentored junior personnel, executed high-level logistics and multi-provider scheduling, and maintained highly sensitive, classified data entry and medical profiles with 100% accuracy.
More recently, I’ve expanded my operational leadership through Business Manager responsibilities, including financial & payroll administration using QuickBooks, operational audits to remove bottlenecks, and inventory/procurement oversight. I’m committed to delivering efficient, high-quality administrative support that enhances unit productivity and improves patient care outcomes.
