Kyralyn Smotski
@kyralynsmotski
Experienced administrative and healthcare support professional skilled in records, compliance, and client relations.
What I'm looking for
I am an experienced administrative and healthcare support professional with over 10 years working across healthcare, education, and public service. I prioritize accuracy, confidentiality, and strong client relationships in every role.
At OSF Healthcare I maintained and updated patient records in Epic, ensured HIPAA compliance, and consistently exceeded productivity and quality expectations while working remotely. In school and county roles I managed student and client records using Aeries and C-IV, improved workflows, and supported clear, auditable documentation.
As a Correctional Deputy II I applied communication, safety, and de-escalation techniques from C.O.R.E. training to maintain secure housing units and produce detailed incident reports that supported investigations. I also supervised inmate activities, processed intake/release documentation, and helped keep contraband levels low.
Outside institutional roles I managed operations for a household and run a small photography business handling scheduling, client outreach, session delivery, and image editing. I train staff, create onboarding resources, and use Google Workspace and Microsoft Office to streamline processes and improve team performance.
