Skills

Comprehensive Medication Reviews

Ø  During my continued employment at the Medication Management Program at The Ohio State University I have completed 100s of comprhenssive medications reviews. I ensure each patient I speak with is getting the most benefit from their medicines. The comprehensive medication review (CMR) process involves the individual design of a systematic process of collecting patient-specific information, assessing medication therapies to identify medication-related problems, developing a prioritized list of medication-related problems, and creating a focused evidence-based plan for improved health outcomes using a proprietary EHR software platform – RxCompanion.

Customer Service/ Interpersonal Skills/ Communication Skills/ Problem Solving

Ø  As a tutor and Pharmacy tech I have vast experience with communicating with people in a cordial manner. The experiences have also made me a better listener so that I can correctly access what a person is asking of me, and carry out the instruction. I have improved my ability to listen critically, communicate efficiently and sufficiently when necessary. As a Pharmacy tech at CVS we routinely confer information to patients over the phone, this experience has allowed me to learn and overcome the challenges of non-face to face communication.

Organization and Planning

Ø  I was recently Involved in planning a food drive in conjunction with a charity football game consisting of staff and students. My main focus was logistics, I was in charge recruitment as well as being involved in playing.

Ø  Strengthened flexibility to change and adapt to quick changes in events and work place situations. Example, dealing with patients with quickly changing needs at CVS.

Technology

Ø  Extensive experience with analyzing data with excel and creating graphs from data generated from LabQuest probes and other instruments gained from years of in lab course work and internships. Mastery of Microsoft Word, PowerPoint, and misc. proprietary analysis and documentation software.
