  • I am a dedicated and dependable Emergency Room Technician with over 2 years of experience at Lackey Memorial Hospital, where I’ve worked since July 2023. In this dual-role position, I provide both direct clinical support to emergency department staff and administrative assistance at the front desk. I am highly skilled in taking and documenting vital signs, assisting patients with comfort measures and mobility, maintaining clean and well-stocked treatment rooms, and ensuring patient safety in high-stress situations. I also manage emergency room admissions, which includes registering patients, verifying insurance, collecting demographic and billing information, and maintaining accurate records in the hospital’s electronic medical record system. My calm demeanor, attention to detail, and ability to communicate clearly with both patients and clinical staff allow me to perform effectively in a fast-paced environment. I bring a compassionate, patient-focused approach to every shift and am committed to continuous learning as I pursue my Associate of Arts degree.
  • At Lackey Memorial Hospital in Forest, Mississippi, I have served as an Emergency Room Technician and ER Admissions Clerk since July 2023. On the clinical side, I support physicians, nurses, and emergency medical staff by taking and recording vital signs—including blood pressure, temperature, pulse, oxygen saturation, and respiration rate. I assist with transporting and repositioning patients, helping with basic needs such as hygiene, and ensuring rooms are cleaned and fully stocked between visits. I follow infection control and hospital safety protocols carefully to maintain a safe and sanitary environment. During high-acuity situations, I respond promptly by helping the team stay organized and providing non-invasive assistance to support patient care.
  • In my administrative capacity, I am responsible for registering patients upon arrival to the ER, accurately inputting their personal and insurance information into the electronic medical record system. I coordinate closely with triage staff to ensure patients are prioritized appropriately and assist families with questions and paperwork, always maintaining professionalism and empathy. I verify insurance, collect payments when necessary, and ensure that all interactions comply with HIPAA and hospital privacy guidelines. My reliability and knowledge of ER procedures have led to me being trusted by nursing leadership to help orient new team members.
