Experienced Registered Nurse with a history of providing direct patient care in fast-paced outpatient environments while sometimes handling difficult patients in high-stress situations. Strong emphasis on customer service and patient satisfaction. Excellent communication abilities. Not interested in being behind the scenes - wants to be directly involved with the patients. Full or Part-time is acceptable.
As the nurse I was responsible for all H & P's, pre- and post-op assessments. I scheduled and precerted their surgeries. I was responsible for all patient calls, medications, wound care, dressing changes and assisting the physician with in-office procedures. As the Office Manager, I was responsible for staffing, vacation, supplies and entering all charges. I coded all surgeries and worked with the billing company to follow-up on aging AR. I also coordinated with the State and Federal correctional facilities to schedule inmates to be seen in our clinic and have surgery as deemed necessary. Physician closed his private practice October 2023 to join Baptist Neurosciences. Since that time, I have continued to make medical records available for the patients and worked to decrease the aging AR as much as possible.
