Kellee James
@kelleejames
Detail-oriented Health Coordinator with a passion for student support.
What I'm looking for
I am a dedicated Health Coordinator with over three years of experience in providing essential support to students and their families within a school environment. My strong work ethic and commitment to confidentiality have allowed me to excel in managing administrative tasks while ensuring that each client receives the sensitive care they deserve. I take pride in my ability to communicate effectively and advocate for my clients, ensuring they are informed and supported throughout their health journeys.
In my current role at BASIS Independent Manhattan, I have successfully organized and maintained student health records, ensuring compliance with health regulations and saving the school from potential fines through meticulous review of immunization records. My proactive approach has fostered strong relationships between community health providers and the families I serve, enhancing the overall health and well-being of our student population.
As I continue my education with a Post Graduate Certificate in Community Care & Counseling, I am eager to further develop my skills and contribute to a healthcare team that values compassion and excellence. I am a quick learner and a self-starter, always looking for opportunities to enhance my contributions and support the needs of my clients and colleagues.
