Skills & Abilities:
  • Excellent interpersonal and communication skills.
  • Punctual and reliable with the ability to multitask.
  • Conscientious about triage and escalation of issues.
  • Excellent typing skills (at least 45 wpm with accuracy).

Core Competencies:
  • Greet patients promptly and courteously.
  • Load patient data into the EMR system to maintain clinic flow and schedule.
