Summary
As a highly motivated and adaptable Scribe Supervisor in an Emergency Department, I excel at closely collaborating with physicians to meticulously document assessments, results, and treatment plans. With two years of experience as a reliable and focused site supervisor and three years total as a medical scribe, I am deeply committed to making a positive impact on facility operations. My passion for excellence drives me to mentor and retain a high-performing team of scribes, ensuring they operate at the highest capacity.
In addition to my role in the Emergency Department, I also work as a medical assistant in a medical spa. This dual experience has provided me with a well-rounded understanding of medical practices and patient care across diverse settings.
Moreover, I am dedicated to advancing my own education in the medical field through Physician Assistant studies. This commitment not only enhances my own skills and knowledge but also equips me to better serve the department and its patients. With a clear directive to continuously improve both personally and professionally, I am poised to contribute significantly to the success and growth of Community Medical Center Emergency Department.
