Melissa Kotheimer Email & Phone Number

I am a professional individual with years of experience in the health care industry. Areas of experience include medical records, certified nursing assistant (CNA), Basic Life Support (BLS), and medical reception work. My work experience as a whole has been very diverse, with jobs ranging from the restaurant and bar industry, to working in the back offices cleaning medical offices, and sterilizing medical equipment. I also worked as a certified nursing aid for two years and still pick up shifts here and there at the skilled nursing facility where I currently work in medical records. My range of opportunities has allowed me to excel in inter-professional communication, patient and family care, and bedside manner. I am enthusiastic, as a new nurse, to expand my knowledge in a clinical setting.
