The girls and a boy that I work with are amazing, even we are not together, means we are in different locations, we support each other, time to times we have fun through the chat LoL, like the time our supervisor share with us about a transaction that she made and was wrong but she catches it on time to fix it. That means a lot for me.Įvery time I speak with my supervisor I learn something new, I really enjoy it, I like my manager even she is really busy she always support me, also when I have issues with my family, she is there. I am really impress about our CEO communications, for example during bad weather times, she send out messages like, do not come until 10am because the road is icy, or during the storm our managers where pending about all the employees and we were pay for the entire week of that snow storm. Check the patients in and out, be sure that their demographics and insurance are updated, help them when they have any questions or contact them with the people that can help them.
