I translate clinical data into compliant, evidence-based healthcare recommendations.
What I'm looking for
At FOX Rehabilitation, I manage a complex clinical caseload while ensuring compliant documentation aligned with healthcare regulations and payer requirements. I interpret clinical findings and patient outcomes data to support evidence-based treatment decisions and communicate clear recommendations to patients, caregivers, and interdisciplinary teams.
I've also improved clinical workflows, educated staff, and mentored new clinicians on documentation accuracy and clinical standards. With a Doctorate of Occupational Therapy, I bring experience reviewing clinical information, evaluating scientific literature, identifying risk, and translating complex medical concepts into actionable healthcare communications.
