Charlene E Verbeek

Care Coordinator

About

I am an approachable and influential people leader and clinician with progressive roles within healthcare. I am people-focused and lead with compassion, building strong relationships throughout the organization. I quickly connect, build rapport and identify and encourage strengths in others, and coach and mentor them to reach their full potential. I have extensive experience leading diverse teams of healthcare workers using proven skills to communicate effectively and lead management teams through change. Adept at problem solving, I can pivot and manage competing priorities to ensure timely and responsive delivery. I am skilled in patient- relations and healthcare system navigation. Leveraging my solid operation management skills, I am dedicated to supporting efficiency, collaboration, and quality improvement. My personal philosophy is to listen with curiosity and to speak with honesty.
