Patient Representative

Duties and Responsibilities:

Patient representatives work for healthcare administrators to inform concerns and special needs of patients and their families. They make sure they are aware of the patient satisfaction, investigate their complaints, collect information about patient dissatisfaction, work with departments to resolve patient problems, and to educate the staff. They often work in hospitals, nursing homes, long-term care facilities, and public agencies.

Average Salary: $20,000 - $40,000

Educational Requirements:

If you are interested in being a patient representative you should take business, science, math, and English in high school and preferably AP.

Some will want college graduates with a background in health or social service. 

This seems something I would be interested in but first I would like to do a little more research and possibly visit a campus that has this as a class and see if it is what I would really like to do.
