What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role in a supportive healthcare environment that values patient care and professional development.

I am a dedicated medical professional with over twenty-three years of experience in the healthcare field, specializing in phlebotomy and patient care. My journey began with a diploma in Medical Insurance Billing and Coding, and I have since acquired multiple certifications, including Certified Medical Assistant and Phlebotomy Technician. My extensive experience includes working in various medical settings, such as hospitals, clinics, and correctional facilities, where I have honed my skills in blood draws, specimen processing, and patient assessments.

Throughout my career, I have consistently demonstrated my commitment to providing high-quality patient care. I have successfully managed clinical duties under the supervision of physicians and registered nurses, ensuring that patients receive the best possible care. My roles have included triaging patients, administering medications, and maintaining accurate patient records using electronic medical records (EMR) systems. I take pride in my ability to communicate effectively with patients and healthcare teams, ensuring a smooth and efficient workflow.

As I look to the future, I am eager to continue my professional growth in a dynamic healthcare environment where I can leverage my skills in phlebotomy and patient care. I am passionate about contributing to a team that prioritizes patient well-being and embraces continuous learning and improvement.
