Jimena Garcia Ruiz
East Palo Alto
Summary
I am a compassionate and reliable individual with 2 years of experience in retail, now pursuing a career in healthcare as a medical assistant. I have a strong work ethic and I'm dedicated to learning. I completed a 2 year long medical assisting program where I learned the basics like medical terminology, and OSHA and HIPAA standards and I was trained in both administrative and clinical procedures, including scheduling, charting, and insurance verification, as well as taking vital signs, assisting with exams, and specimen collection. I am excited about the opportunity to contribute to a dedicated healthcare team and provide excellent patient care.
