MARGARET RIDGELY
Health Information Technician
PROFILE
I am looking for an administrative position as a Health Information Technician. I want to work in a secure position with room for growth within the company. I have always wanted to make an impact in the healthcare industry. The work behind the doctors and nurses is also very important. The administrative portion of healthcare has intrigued me and inspires me to be a cog in the wheel that keeps healthcare moving in a forward direction. With the interpersonal skills I possess, compassion and empathy towards others, organizational skills and attention to detail, I am convinced this is where I can make the biggest difference.
