Reflecting on her first year at Northwell Health, Sabrina Vidal attributes her growth and development to the support and guidance of her colleagues and leaders. Join us as we dive into Sabrina’s journey as a medical assistant at Northwell Health’s University Physicians Group Medicine in Staten Island, NY, showcasing her dedication and passion for health care.
Sabrina entered the medical assistance profession for the opportunity to make a difference in people’s lives. “What I love most about working at Northwell is getting to help the people in our community. I enjoy getting to know each patient I encounter daily.” Building meaningful relationships with her patients and collaborating with her esteemed colleagues are among the many joys Sabrina finds in her role. Her top priority is to provide the best patient care for the individuals she helps. She is committed to addressing any patient concerns or questions, fostering a supportive and patient-centered environment in every aspect of her role.
Sabrina starts her day by carefully preparing patient rooms, sterilizing them, and ensuring they are fully stocked with essential supplies for the physicians and nurses. A central aspect of her role involves triaging patients, where she warmly greets them, introduces herself, and ensures their comfort throughout their in-office exam experience. Sabrina meticulously documents patient questions and concerns, takes vital signs, and relays detailed feedback to the clinical care provider to ensure comprehensive care. She also assists with clinical tasks such as preparing vaccinations and aiding in tests. Sabrina’s cross-training extends to administrative duties, including answering phones, checking patients in or out, communicating test results, and assisting with intake forms.
There are many ways to jump into a career path as a medical assistant. Those who have completed 1-3 years as an emergency medical technician or certified nursing assistant are two new ways someone can enter this field. In 2010, Sabrina graduated from The Willsey Institute in Staten Island, NY, where she received her medical assistant certification. Afterwards, Sabrina went on to work in internal medicine at a local healthcare provider. She then, stepped outside of the health care industry to work in local government. When she realized a career in health care was her true calling, she pursued a position at Northwell as a medical assistant on our Staten Island team.
Sabrina admits that when she was set to start her new role, She credits her team for making her feel at ease during her transition into a career at Northwell, “My growth and development has been nurtured through continuous training and the unwavering support of my peers,” Sabrina shares, emphasizing the collaborative philosophy that fills the Northwell community. It’s this supportive environment that has empowered Sabrina to flourish in her role during her first year.
Sabrina highlights the glowing testimonials from fellow team members and the prospect of contributing to a patient-centric environment is what drew her to Northwell. For Sabrina, Northwell isn’t just a workplace; it’s a community driven by a shared commitment to excellence in healthcare delivery. Sabrina has aspirations to learn more about ultrasonography and the prospect to take advantage of our tuition assistance program to advance her career. Her future at Northwell Health is filled with potential and possibility.
