Business Associate
Greenwich, Connecticut, United States
As a Unit Secretary in a bustling unit known for its high volume of patient traffic, I excelled in managing a wide array of responsibilities that required exceptional communication and multitasking skills. I was the central hub for all forms of communication, efficiently directing phone calls and call bells to ensure rapid response times from the medical team. My role involved prioritizing and triaging incoming communications to support a diverse team of providers, nursing staff, and ancillary personnel, ensuring seamless operational flow even during peak periods. I coordinated with on-call physicians for multiple specialties, facilitated critical broadcast messages about traumas and strokes to the entire emergency department, and adeptly handled the administrative tasks related to patient admissions and transfers. This included liaising with on-site transport services, EMS, and life flight crews. Additionally, I managed the ordering of office supplies, medical equipment, and food for the unit, maintaining our ability to provide high-level care without interruption in a fast-paced environment.
